Armenian opposition clashes with PM Pashinyan's guards in Yerevan

Pashinyan's guards clashed with opposition deputies who sought to enter the hall of the Mariott hotel hosting the Armenian democracy forum with the participation of Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and US Ambassador Lynne Tracy in Yerevan.

Reported from Sputnik - Armenia, that the opposition figures entered the building with placards and photos of arrested oppositionists they term political prisoners. However, the State security service officers prevented them from entering the hall. The lawmakers were shouting 'Shame!' and 'Armenia without Nikol' in English.

"A crisis of democracy has formed in Armenia," the opposition said through loudspeakers, also criticizing the US ambassador for supporting the dictatorial regime.

Mass media representatives were not allowed to the event: the forum organizers did not invite them either, showing a selective approach.
