Citizen activist Vardges Gaspari was carrying out a protest action in his typical manner, lying on the ground in Amiryan Street with a banner reading “Non-Citizen’s Day”. He refused to answer the questions of journalists and citizens.
A little later, the police took him by the legs and hands and brought him into custody. And on Amiryan Street, held immediately after the Armenian Genocide Memorial Day on April 24, announced by Nikol Pashinyan, barbecue party On the occasion of Citizen’s Day, which has received intense criticism from the public and social networks.
On the day of the barbecue party, journalists asked NA Speaker Alen Simonyan. He said that we are verifying the information about the destruction of the Stepanakert church, he also considered it inappropriate to compare the destruction of the church and the burning of the Turkish flag, calling the latter harmful to the Republic of Armenia and the Armenian people.
“The foreign policy of the Republic of Armenia cannot be based on whim and caprice, one day let’s burn the flag of Azerbaijan, one day let’s not burn it… It doesn’t happen like that, not every booth can have its own foreign policy.
4 days ago I had good meetings in Turkey, my colleague from Turkey proposed that Armenia take a regional parliamentary framework with Georgia and Azerbaijan. Is it heroism to light a flag? That is their heroism: to talk big, and when necessary, to run at a speed of 220 km in the opposite direction,” said Alen Simonyan.
On Amiryan street, an argument started between Alen Simonyan, CP supporters and a citizen representing Artak. He was also detained by the police.
