Activists launch round-the-clock protest in Yerevan park

15:13 – 12.03.12

The activists protesting against the construction of kiosks in
Yerevan’s Mashtots Park have voiced their intention to launch a
round-the-clock sit-in in the area.

In a statement, they call upon the municipal authorities to protect
the public property from commercialization by taking action towards
dismantling the kiosks and renovating the park. They have set a
deadline until March 16, expecting a positive decision.

`But we will not leave the park until then. We’ll be there 24 hours a
day,’ reads the statement.

The activists have also created a group on Facebook, inviting 3,894
users to join them.
