If there are no anti-epidemiological measures, there will be a second wave of the coronavirus because people don’t wear face masks and don’t wash their hands and then they secretly hold wedding ceremonies, kiss and hug each other, make toasts to their grandparents and infect each other. This is what Deputy Speaker of the National Assembly of Armenia Alen Simonyan told citizens holding a protest in front of parliament with the demand to leave for Russia.

“During these past six months, Armenia has managed to keep the country in a full blockade. Now you have to give us time to understand how we can solve the problem. It has to be good for all of us. Armenia has a population of 3,000,000. If we don’t restore air communication, we won’t be able to go on like this for a long time. We want to open the borders more than anyone else,” he said.
