Republican MP Hovhannes Sahakyan believed that the tolerance, which the authorities demonstrated in the course of days, particularly the police, should be in the framework of mutual understanding and respect.
Mr. Sahakyan, talking about the police actions in Baghramyan Avenue, who opened the Avenue and the traffic was restored, and the protest participants were taken to the police stations, said, “We need to look at the issue more comprehensive. The traffic in Baghramyan Avenue was blocked, which was contrary to several provisions of the law on “Freedom of Assembly”.” To our observation that the police partly used force, Mr. Hovhannisyan said, “In recent days, the analysts were also writing that there was almost no one there and they could remove the garbage bins and the traffic would be back to normal. Afterwards, there was a call by the police to intrude and voluntarily remove the protesters by 12.30, then the police removed the garbage bins owned by “Sanitec”. The youth gathered there, if they have something to say, there is a adequate law and in the framework of this law, they can utilize all these problems.”
