A group of professors of Yerevan State University today issued a
statement which says in part,
"We, the undersigned, demand that Armenian authorities release
Armenian noted journalist, publicist and editor-in-chief of "Haykakan
Zhamanak" daily Nikol Pashinyan.
"The fact that the political activist struggling for the country’s
future well-being is detained for his political stance is

"For Armenia and Artsakh, it is especially urgent, in light of recent
crucial events related to foreign policy, to establish an environment
of tolerance and confidence in the country
