traffic, and skin-head young people guarding the building entrance
who always accompany G.Tsarukian, did not allow to enter the building
even co-partisans having no invitation card, whose number was rather
great. Even addressing to the party Chairman himself did not help one
them who more persistently attempted to enter. Representatives of mass
media whose number was also rather great, were allowed to enter only
accompanied by the Press Secretary of the party. There was a great
number of bodyguards also in the conference-hall, foyer and hall.
