“Since we are approaching the first anniversary of the launch of the process of overthrow of constitutional order and usurpation of power, my friends and I wanted to show some people that there are still hotbeds of resistance to Armenia’s statehood. Today, we are joined by several citizens of seven cities of Armenia, as well as our followers and supporters," Artur Danielyan said.
Another demonstrator Narek Samsonyan declared his distrust to Nikol Pashinyan.
“Pashinyan has started refuting 90 percent of the statements he has made. He started refuting his statements during the first months after he formed his cabinet. The public at large can already hear all the lies that the incumbent government has told, and the symbolic protest that we held on 1 April was aimed at showing the overall atmosphere of lies and falsehood in Armenia,” he said.
Police forces of Armenia arrested three initiators on 15 April while carrying out anti-Pashinyan protests but they were released shortly thereafter.
