Armenians of Europe rally in Brussels to protest on events in Yerevan

Today, representatives of the Armenian Diaspora who live in Holland, France and Belgium will hold a protest action near the buildings of the European Union and European Commission in Brussels. The participants of the action plan to express their protest against the post-election events in Armenia.

The Armenians of Holland, Belgium and France are going to serve a letter to Armenian Ambassador to the European Union. The "Caucasian Knot" correspondent has learnt about it from the sources close to the opposition.

Let us note here that after elections in Armenia, several rallies, where thousands took part, were held in the district of Los Angeles known as "Minor Armenia" in protest against the violence applied to peaceful demonstrators on March 1. The participants of the rallies declared that protest actions would continue, since indignation of the Diaspora is boundless. The Armenians who live in other cities of California - Fresno, Sacramento, etc. - also took part in the rally.

  • Compensation decrease for illegal prosecution violates rights of KBR resident

    The court ruling, which awarded Madin Gubzhokov compensation of 30,000 roubles for unlawful criminal prosecution, is incomparable with the moral harm caused by the actions of Azamat Kyaov, a former law enforcer. The amount is ridiculous and should be appealed against, lawyers and human rights defenders have stated.
