According to the agency, there was a cordon of police officers with helmets and shields outside the building. Police blocked Demirchyan Street and Baghramyan Avenue near the National Assembly building and did not allow protesters to move forward.
Baghramyan Avenue in the parliament area is completely packed with people. Thousands of people participate in the procession. It is noted that there was a skirmish between Archbishop Bagrat and the police chief.
An opposition rally organized by the leader of the Tavush for the Fatherland movement, Bagrat Galstanyan, began in Yerevan the day before. Galstyanyan called on his followers to march through the capital.
Recall that protests in Armenia broke out due to information that the Armenian authorities had agreed with Azerbaijan on the delimitation of the border in the Tavush region. At the same time, four Armenian villages that were part of Azerbaijan during the Soviet era should go to Baku.
