Supporters of the Armenian opposition gathered in the capital's central Square late on Monday, calling on Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan to resign.

"We have only one agenda, which is the resignation of Nikol Pashinyan. After that everything will normalize automatically," Vage Akopyan, one of the opposition leaders, said.

The opposition supporters blocked the Square late on Sunday, and also today—, where they set up barricades from waste containers and street benches, as well as set up tents. Early on Monday they started blocking Yerevan’s central streets, though several hours later the police fully restored traffic, detaining over 240 people. There’s now over 12.000 people attending the protests. While this may seem small, Armenia is a small country by population so these are actually quite worrying numbers for the current government.
