Opposition protests resume in Yerevan

The Armenian opposition resumed peaceful protests in Yerevan early on Wednesday morning.

Groups of protesters again blocked a number of streets in the city, including the road leading to the Nor Nork district, to force PM Nikol Pashinyan from office.

The opposition began a large-scale civil disobedience campaign on May 2, blocking key streets and street intersections in the Armenian capital to disrupt traffic and step up pressure on Pashinyan’s government.
