VIDEO: Under Shouts of 'Traitor, Leave!', Pashinyan Departed as Arrests Commenced

Under the shouts of "Nikol, traitor" and "Traitor, leave!", Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan left the government’s third building. He was accompanied by the chief of staff, Arsen Torosyan. Journalists loudly called out to Pashinyan, asking if he would approach and answer a few questions. However, Pashinyan departed the area.

After his departure, police began to detain participants of the protest action. A large number of police officers continues to gather around the four corners of the government’s third building.

It is noteworthy that Pashinyan had entered the building amid similar chants earlier to meet with the staff of the Ministry of Environment.
