Civil disobedience protests have taken place throughout Armenia since 12.00 today, Ishkhan Saghatelyan, the coordinator at the Homeland Salvation Front stated during the rally at Republic Square in Yerevan. He reminded that numerous citizens, employees of factories and private companies, state structures have joined the nationwide strike to demand Pashinyan's resignation. 

"Now is the time for all our people to be one fist together to save the homeland. We gave time to deputies of "My Step" faction and suggested to meet and discuss the current situation in the country. Regretfully, they do not perceive the seriousness of the situation and their responsibility. We have received no feedback from the faction thus far," Saghatelyan informed, adding there is much work with each member of the ruling party. 

To remind, the opposition Homeland Salvation Movement set on Tuesday an ultimatum until 18.00 for deputies of the ruling "My Step" faction to send a delegation and hold discussions with the leaders of opposition on the current situation in the country. 

Saghatelyan next informed that the opposition will soon announce the names of all deputies from the ruling faction, and the RA citizens 'will be free in their decision and action.' "If they do not realize and understand the public demand, we will force them to convene a parliamentary session," Saghatelyan said. 

He next said the if their demands are not met, they will spend the night in the square.
