Members of the "Red Card" initiative have headed from Liberty Square to the Presidential Palace at Baghramyan 26. However, at the beginning of Demirtchyan street they were met by police officers who had formed a human wall blocking their way. The group decided to continue their way going up Baghramyan Avenue but the police did not allow them to go ahead. A police lieutenant colonel said the group could continue the demonstration on the opposite pavement. This situation is very tense on the street, with police scuffling with youth activists. Police officers have chained the demonstrators. More police forces are arriving at the site now. The initiative demands to review the prices of electricity, gas, flour and sugar.
