The Miatsum (Unity) action group organized a signature-gathering
campaign against the Armenian-Turkish protocols at the 4th neighborhood
of the Nor-Nork community in Yerevan.

The action group member Ashot Misakyan told NEWS.am that policemen
tried to end the campaign this morning. After the talks, however, the
action was continued. An hour later, 15 people "in civvies", approached
the action group members and ordered them to leave the territory.

"They told us: it is our territory, go away, what’s your business
here? We answered we were not going to leave," Misakyan said. According
to him, the young men turned the tables over, and the Miatsum members
had to leave. The policemen headed by Vice-Chief of the Nor-Nork police
department, who were on duty there, connived at the unlawful action.
