Want to see fewer people at the rally: what instructions did Nikol Pashinyan give?

Today the opposition has called for a rally. The authorities want to show that they are not concerned during these days, yet in reality, that is merely an external facade. The fact is that Nikol Pashinyan has been informed that, according to conducted studies, the number of participants in the rally will be quite high.

Our government source has reported that governors have been instructed to carry out appropriate 'measures' through local mayors to ensure that people 'remain relaxed in their places'. A similar directive has also been given to law enforcement agencies regarding today's tasks, specifically to 'be vigilant on the roads'.

According to our source, Pashinyan has been told that it will be very difficult to prevent people from coming from the regions at this time, but he has instructed to simply take action - 'as much as possible'.

Moreover, there are reports that some pro-government circles may provoke disturbances today in order to instigate clashes and disrupt the rally.

This is reported by the newspaper ‘Pasto’ayr’.
