Prime Minister urged participants of today`s rally not to succumb to  possible provocations

ArmInfo. "Today, during our march, provocations are possible, I urge all citizens to show restraint and not react to them," Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan said on his Facebook page, he is going to participate in today's march, and  following rally, at which he will sum up the results of the  government's activities during the 100 days of being in office.

"I am sure that today the police will ensure  our safety. I also think that some of them will take part in our  march and this will be one of the manifestations of solidarity. Today  there are no distinctions between the police, the National Security  Service, society, the army, the armed forces, state bodies and  authorities; we are all on the same side. This should be a  manifestation of national solidarity, "Pashinyan said." The prime  minister also called on the participants of the action to show  restraint and not react to possible provocations.

"I want to ask you not to respond to a possible aggression today, we  already have the experience of large- scale actions, attended by  about 100 thousand people, there will be a lot of participants at our  rally, and we must exercise restraint." I do not exclude that at our  event , specifically sent people will undertake provocations, I ask  you not to respond with aggression to aggression, and if such  aggressive actions are carried out, law enforcement officers should  react to them, contact the police, "the prime minister said stressing  that today the law enforcement officers will work in emergency mode.   To note, on August 17, rally  will kick off at the Republic Square at  6:30 pm local time, at which Pashinyan will sum up the results of the  government's activities during the 100 days in power.
