REVOLUTION. SNOW STORM | Karine

Have you ever heard of a snowstorm sparking a revolution? Well, that’s exactly what happened in Armenia in 2018. This was the first time in the nation’s history that a peaceful revolution brought about a peaceful transfer of power. The main actor of this revolution was a young politician named Nikol Pashinyan.

What started as a small protest against the appointment of the former president turned prime minister soon grew into a massive movement that brought the country to a standstill. However, what really made this revolution unique was the use of social media and technology to mobilize people and spread the word.

The snowstorm, which hit around the same time as the protests, added to the drama of the situation. Pashinyan, who was leading the protests, was seen walking through the streets during the snowstorm, urging people to join the movement. In the end, the protesters’ determination and unity paid off as the government resigned and Pashinyan was appointed as the new prime minister.

This historic event shows the power of grassroots movements and how social media can be used to mobilize people and create change. It also highlights the importance of perseverance and determination in the face of oppression. The Armenian revolution serves as an inspiration for people across the world who are fighting for their rights and freedom.
