    MOTHERS OF DECEASED SOLDIERS PROTEST OUTSIDE GOVERNMENT

    Tert.am
    18:56 22.09.11

    A group of Armenian citizens had gathered outside the Government
    Building in Yerevan, protesting for various issues.

    Several women, wearing black clothes, were demanding the government
    to find out the real reasons of the deaths of their sons in the army.

    Some of them assumed that their sons might also participate in
    the military parade celebrating the 20th anniversary of Armenia's
    independence, were they alive today.

    Some of those gathered outside the Government Building were former
    residents of North Avenue in central Yerevan, protesting for the
    protection of their rights.

    Also protesting were owners of kiosks who were condemning the decision
    of the Yerevan Municipality to dismantle their trade facilities.

    "The prime minister [Tigran Sargsyan] ordered not to touch the kiosks.

    It turns out that the prime minister's words are ignored," said a
    kiosk owner.

    Speaking to Tert.am, some said they are sure the Yerevan Municipality
    is implementing what they called a "denialist policy" and ignores
    everybody's opinion.

    They said the kiosks in Yerevan are being dismantled without any
    alternative solution offered to their owners.
