ArmInfo.Supporters of the Resistance Movement, demanding the resignation of current Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan, blocked the Yerevan- Sevan interregional highway near the city of Charentsavan.
Police forces are trying to restore traffic on the highway, which is one of the largest in the country. Law enforcement officers use brute force against peaceful participants in the protest action.
It should be noted that the coordinator of the Resistance Movement, vice-speaker of the parliament from the opposition faction "Armenia" Ishkhan Saghatelyan at a rally on the evening of May 26 said that on May 27 the Movement will continue actions of disobedience, including in the regions of Armenia. "There will be no rally on May 27. On May 28, at 18:00, a nationwide rally will be held. At 16:00, a large march from Sardarapat to France Square will take place. A parallel rally will be held in Stepanakert as well. May 28 is a symbolic day for our people and state. The situation is fatal. "Take to the streets, we will unite and expel them," the oppositionist said. He also noted that either the authorities will take part in an extraordinary meeting of the parliament on June 3 and justify that Artsakh should become part of Azerbaijan, or they will sign the opposition's statement.
