I've tried other mirror locations but it still tries to fetch from archive.trisquel.org for some packages. Does anybody know why?

I have the same situation.

In my /etc/apt/sources.list, I have a mirror for all sources, but I also have archive.trisquel.org for aramo-security. Since I did not do this manually, I guess this may be the default, the motivation might be to get security updates faster when archive.trisquel.org is working (so not now).

That's exactly the case.

Is this a new added functionality? Previously security updates would be fetched from mirrors even if "archive.trisquel.org" was up. The problem is that in my country "archive.trisquel.org" is censored in a weird way: we can transfer small data to "archive.trisquel.org" (e.g. ping'ing) but not big data (e.g. apt update) ¹. As the result Trisquel thinks "archive.trisquel.org" is up but can't get updates from it so it fails. Is there a way around this?

No, at least not since 2008 AFAICT.

Pull from a working mirror and manually set security from it too.

Example:

deb https://quantum-mirror.hu/mirrors/pub/trisquel/packages/ aramo-security main
#deb https://archive.trisquel.org/trisquel/ aramo-security main
