Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan wrote on his Facebook page.

“I have made it very clear today that, despite speculation, violence or incitement to violence (mostly armed) can in no way take place in the government’s toolkit.

I urge, please, demand not to consider any of our statements, gestures or invitations in this context. If you get such an impression from anything we say, it is a wrong impression.

Now I expect the opposition to clearly state that it excludes any violent activity, incitement to violence (including armed) in its further activities.

This will put an end to the tensions that have been going on for days.”
