The opposition Homeland Salvation Movement, demanding the resignation of PM Nikol Pashinyan, has launched  the new phase of its struggle during demonstration on March 28. As the Movement said in a released statement on Saturday, the main activities of the opposition force will move to Armenia's provinces. The dates and locations of upcoming regional demonstrations have already been announced. 

"We state once again that the ruling faction of the National Assembly have stopped implementing its main duties set by the Constitution and laws, turning into a group of incapable and unprincipled people, lacking own political and civic position," the statement read in part. 

It added, that starting from Saturday, the opposition activists will unblock Demirchyan street where they had been staging non-stops protests for the past week and promise to return to Baghramyan and Demirchyan streets after the regional tours. 

"We call on all decent compatriots to get consolidated in all communities, stand up and activity participate in the meetings and gatherings of the Homeland Salvation Movement. The national demand for removal of the traitor should now turn into a nations-wide struggle to prevent new concessions and the continuation of the pro-Turkish policy," added the statement. 

The first regional meeting of the opposition Movement is scheduled for April 6 at 14.00 in Seven town.
