ArmInfo.Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan made a live broadcast to the participants of the action on blocking the buildings of the courts with a strong request  not to succumb to provocations and avoid violence.

Addressing the population live through his Facebook page, Pashinyan noted that he  would speak on May 20 at 12.00 during a meeting in the Government, to  which he invited a number of high-ranking officials, and inform  citizens about further steps.  The Prime Minister repeated several  times the idea of the necessity of preserving the peaceful and non-  violent nature of the action, which should proceed in the logical  course of a non-violent, democratic, velvet revolution. "The logic of  our actions and tools remains the same," he stressed, noting that,  although he had ordered the police to ensure the safety of a peaceful  rally, the participants of the action should avoid provocateurs and  not respond to them, excluding any violence.

"Of course, I see that there are people who think that through  violence they can solve issues and there are courts that assist such  people. But I want to remind everyone that we have already proved  that by eliminating violence and hatred, one can hold a political  struggle, and it is of fundamental importance for us, being a  guarantee of our victory, "stressed Pashinyan, stressing that"  nothing will prevent us from making Armenia a truly free, truly  democratic, truly legal state. "The Prime Minister specifically  emphasized that there are no reasons to doubt his decisiveness to go  towards this goal. "I just have a work style that not everyone  probably accepts. I believe in people, give them a chance, try to  keep the processes going without my direct participation. But if all  possibilities are exhausted , we must act and act within the essence  of our Constitution, in accordance with international law and move  towards the goal of creating a truly independent judicial system in  the country. I believe in this, I believe in the ideals of our  revolution, and I believe that we realize these our ideals'',  Pashinyan said. "The reason for the current situation," Pashinyan  said, "is that neither I, nor the government, nor the people need  puppet courts."
