After numerous requests to rally participants to release Baghramyan Avenue, Yerevan police dispersed the rally
TASS cites the statement of the representative of the press service of the Yerevan police:
After the expiration of the deadline announced by representatives of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Republic (five hours), the protesters were asked to create an initiative group that would voice specific demands on the authorities. It took about half an hour, but the initiative group was not created, and there were no stated specific demands and proposals from the protesters (except for exclamations about the need for a change of power). After that, the protesters received another proposal from law enforcement officers - to continue the protest outside the roadway. But this proposal was ignored.
After a lengthy "persuasion" the police began to disperse the protesters who blocked the avenue. From the message of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Republic:
Armenian news services report approximately 50 detainees for whom administrative offenses protocols have been drawn up.
