He said the ongoing occupation and armed seizure is impermissible and should be condemned because a real change can’t be achieved through violence.

The same day, the Armenian police press service reported that 51 people were injured, including 29 police officers, and 140 people were arrested following Tuesday’s clashes between police and protesters in Yerevan.
