    GYUMRI CITIZENS TEAR AZERBAIJANI FLAG

    Organizer of the Azerbaijani Films Festival Georgi Vanyan has announced
    that he refuses to hold the festival in Gyumri since he is under the
    citizens' pressure and demands that the police ensure his safety by
    dispersing activists gathered at "Asbarez" Club and ensuring at least
    a 4 meter distance from the building so that he can leave and reach
    Yerevan with the accompaniment of police officers.

    GALA TV reports that there have been two attempts to beat the festival
    organizer, but those attempts were suspended after police intervention.

    Before refusing to hold the festival, Georgi Vanyan had declared
    that the festival would be held at 15:00, even if there was only
    one viewer. Then, he had suggested to the negotiating mothers of
    freedom fighters that the citizens of Gyumri declare that Vanyan was
    being exiled from Armenia. There are more and more people gathering
    at "Asbarez" Club and the building has been surrounded by police
    officers since this morning. Young citizens of Gyumri have ripped
    the Azerbaijani flag and continue to scream "Leave, Vanyan".
