The authorities have decided that from now on it is necessary to have the consent of the national security agencies of the Republic of Armenia in order to cover various topics in some parts of Syunik Province. Vazgen Manukyan, the opposition Homeland Salvation Movement’s candidate for PM, noted this in a statement to the people on Thursday.

"Yesterday it also became known that there is a secret document, according to which the borders of Syunik and the communications passing through it are determined to the detriment of Armenia. (…).

Do not wait for the steps of political parties. All national political forces stand with you, but you decide the future of the country.

I call to gather at Liberty Square [in Yerevan] tomorrow, on February 12, at 15:00, and decide what we have to do. We are losing our Homeland right before our eyes," Manukyan added in particular.
