Armenak Kyureghyan, the father of Kyureghyan brothers, who seized a police station in Yerevan’s Erebuni district with 30 or so other members of the Sasna Dzrer group since July 17, is giving a press conference. He says he is ready to do everything possible to resolve the crisis in a peaceful way without confrontations. "I am ready to meet with Jirayr Sefilyan, Sasna Dzrer and authorities and become a mediator between them. I'm waiting for a competent response from the authorities but there has been no reaction to this moment.  Any concession should be based on a mutual agreement, leading to a peaceful solution. I hope the authorities will demonstrate goodwill. if the authorities are reasonable, they will demonstrate goodwill.  they should put aside their personal ambitions and think about people," Armenak Kyureghyan said. He does not consider the ambulance crew kept in the seized police station as hostages.  "They are fulfilling the Hippocratic Oath and performing their professional duties by helping the wounded persons inside the building," he said.
