Miatsum continues protest without candles
On October 9, Miatsum Initiative continued its campaign against the pre-signed Armenian-Turkish Protocols on normalization of bilateral relations.
The police today grasped the only burning candle of the Initiative near "Barekamutyun" metro station where the protesters were collecting signatures against the documents.
As a result, the action was held without burning the papers symbolizing the Protocols.
The protesters had to give matches to passers-by to burn the papers after signing. Some burnt the papers in front of the police.
"As of September 9, the Initiative has collected some 100 signatures," Miatsum representative Khachatur Khachatrian said to A1+.
Heritage Party MP Zaruhi Postanjian joined the protesters later in the day.
