Hayk Konjoryan, the head of the “Civil Contract” Faction of the RA National Assembly, wrote on his Facebook page. “I thank the Police for maintaining public order in a professional way and for not giving in to provocations. Dear police officers, the people are by your side.

I thank our citizens for their high civic awareness and restraint.

Dear law-abiding citizens, the Police are by your side.

Democracy in Armenia is irreversible, the power of the people is inviolable, the will of the people is unshakable.”
