Employees of the RA State Revenue Committee Forced to Attend Rally for Nikol Pashinyan's Supporters

Employees of the RA State Revenue Committee have been compelled to attend a rally for supporters of Nikol Pashinyan. Senior officials from the State Revenue Committee were present in Lusakert:

1. Edward Hovhannisyan, the President of the RA State Revenue Committee
2. Erjanik Hakobyan, Head of Internal Security Department of the RA State Revenue Committee
3. Vardan Sargsyan, Deputy Head of the RA State Revenue Committee's Customs Department

As previously reported, according to experts' estimates, the rally called by Nikol Pashinyan was able to bring together a maximum of 10,000 people, achieved through the use of administrative resources. A significant number of security personnel also constituted this figure.

It should be noted that today the General Staff of the RA Armed Forces issued a statement demanding Nikol Pashinyan's resignation: "The Prime Minister of the RA and the government are no longer capable of making adequate decisions in this critical and fateful situation for the Armenian people." Following this statement, Nikol Pashinyan declared during a Facebook live broadcast that he considers it an attempted coup and called on his supporters to gather at Republic Square, subsequently leading a march surrounded by security personnel.

At 16:00, numerous officials from the state apparatus were present at Pashinyan's organized rally, having been taken to the square under his instruction, despite being during working hours.
