Yesterday the municipality of Yerevan petitioned political and civic organizations to keep from organizing rallies in the center of Yerevan. “In consideration of the heavy traffic on the streets of the center and also the weather conditions, in order to provide security of citizens and means of transport, as well as in order to prevent traffic congestions, the municipality of Yerevan informs that rallies and other mass demonstration should not be organized in the center of Yerevan and petitions organizations and citizens to keep from such mass demonstrations,” writes the mayoral statement. It is worth mentioning that they are making this statement in time. Have any political or civic organizations organized any mass demonstrations in a pre-election period ever?
