The protests against the government led by Nikol Pashinyan are continuing, with a recent press conference held by Anna Mkrtchyan, a member of the “I Have Honor” alliance. During the conference, Mkrtchyan criticized Pashinyan for the actions of his bodyguards, who allegedly pushed a protester, causing injury. She also expressed concern about the government’s use of force and the lack of understanding regarding when to withdraw from such actions.

Mkrtchyan also mentioned that one of her colleagues had been detained the previous night and was not allowed to inform anyone for several hours. Furthermore, tear gas was reportedly used against individuals wearing black and red berets during a rally and strike organized at the AGN headquarters. Mkrtchyan claimed that the government had engaged in violence against the protesters, resulting in physical abuse and mistreatment.

These developments highlight the ongoing tensions between the government and its critics, with allegations of excessive force and infringement of citizens’ rights. The situation remains fluid, and it is crucial to monitor the evolving events to fully understand the complex dynamics at play.
