    Due to political developments in Yerevan where riots have taken
    place, the government has imposed a State of Emergency until the
    20th March. Due to this the Armenian National Final scheduled for
    this Saturday (8th March) has had to be restructured.

    The National final was to include a concert where Sirusho was to
    perform to the public the songs that would be voted on by the public in
    order to choose one to go to Belgrade. This was scheduled to take place
    at the Academic Opera and Ballet Theatre but has now been cancelled.

    The National Final will now be filmed at a television studio with
    limited access but which will be shown on Television at the same
    time and date. A spokesperson for ARMTV confirmed this move due to
    the inappropriateness of hosting a concert after recent developments
    had led to the loss of relatives for many people.

    The show will take place this Saturday 8th March at 18:30 CET and
    will be available via Oikotimes.com
