Rally In Armenia

Armenian opposition leader Nikol Pashinyan had a faithful comrade by his side as he marched from Gyumri to capital Yerevan earlier in April. His name is Chalo - a stray dog - who marched with Mr Pashinyan and other protesters for nearly 200 kilometres and 14 days

Some 10,000 protesters rallied in the Armenian capital on Sunday, defying police threats to forcefully break up the demonstration against the government's controversial move to hike electricity prices.

Hundreds of Armenian protesters remained camped out near the presidential palace early today after the government refused to heed their week-long calls against hikes in electricity prices.

Nearly 6,000 demonstrators rallied in the Armenian capital on Tuesday after riot police used water cannon to break up an earlier protest against electricity price hikes.
