/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Yerevan city administration should authorize
any rally unless the situation settles down completely, RA President
Robert Kocharian told a news conference in Yerevan.

"We should derive a lesson from the latest developments and introduce
certain limitations in permission for conduction of rallies to avoid
public hysteria. Conduction of regular rallies at one and the same
site by one and the political force should be banned," he said.

"For example, conduction of rallies in Liberty Square should be
permitted twice a week only."

"The response of the authorities should be strict to prevent repetition
of the disorders. But it’s the task of the next President," Mr
Kocharian said, Novosti Armenia reports.
