Public figure Edgar Ghazaryan, a former chief of the Armenian Constitutional Court staff and ex-ambassador to Poland, has reacted to a police statement that traffic has been restored across Yerevan after being blocked by anti-government protesters on Wednesday morning.

"The police have said that all roads in Yerevan are unblocked. I wonder whether our "valiant" police can also unblock the Goris-Kapan, Kapan-Chakaten, Berdzor-Shushi, Stepanakert-Hadrut, Vardenis-Karvachar and other roads?” he wrote on Facebook.

“If these roads are open for travel, there will definitely be no blocked roads in Yerevan. The roads in Yerevan are closed off temporarily in order to unblock our main roads once and for all,” Ghazaryan said.
