Statement

Deputy of the National Assembly of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan, as the organizer of the rally, led its participants to France Square in Yerevan, completely paralyzing the traffic in the city center.
The streets intersecting on the French Square are of vital importance to the capital. The created situation has already caused the residents inconveniences, limiting their freedom of movement.
Failure to take measures to ensure the natural progress of the meeting, lack of co-ordinators at the meeting venue, lack of cooperation with the police, transfer of property belonging to the community by the participants of the meeting indicate that the meeting organizers do not fully control the situation.
The police urges the organizers of the meeting not to lose their vigilance and to refrain from illegal actions.
