2008-04-09 | With the area around Yerevan's Opera in almost total lock
down, prime minister Serge Sargsyan was inaugurated as president in a
ceremony and military parade that citizens could few could get even
remotely close to. As it happened, myself and another photographer
managed to eventually break the police blockade and get right outside
the Opera building, but a lot of good that did us.
Sargsyan was already inside and all we managed to get was the back of
the head of the outgoing president, Robert Kocharian, as he arrived
to enter via a side door.
