ArmInfo. "All the members of the ruling Republican Party must, without exception, withdraw from the political arena of Armenia, thus "RPA, leave," said the leader of the  opposition movement Nikol Pashinyan during the march.

Oppositionists proclaimed a new slogan: "Reject Serzh and Karen".  Meanwhile, the police sealed the approaches to the RPA building on  Malik-Adamyan street with barbed wire, several BTRs were fitted. The  police also blocked some approaches to Baghramyan street, where the  residence of the prime minister and the parliament building are  located. According to Pashinyan, the ruling elite believes that it  can replace one Republican leader with another, and, thus, retain  power. But, as the oppositionist noted, "the people are not so  naive."

The leader of the opposition movement touched upon the words of Prime  Minister of Armenia Karen Karapetyan that the head of the government  can not be chosen on the street, since this action is not provided by  law that this should be within the law. Pashinyan noted: "Karen  Karapetyan did not understand well what we said: the head of the  government should be elected in the National Assembly, according to  the law, he should be nominated by the faction, and before that the  people in the square should give their consent."

Earlier ArmInfo reported that Tsarukyan and Pashinyan agreed that the  "Tsarukyan" bloc in the parliament will vote for the candidacy of  Nikol Pashinyan.

Recall that today the students of the Yerevan universities continued  their strike. Students of Vanadzor State University, who, marching  through the streets of the city, call on students from other  universities, as well as fellow citizens to join the pre-movement  movement, joined them. At the moment, supporters of the protest  movement blocked the road from Aparan to Yerevan.
