YEREVAN. – Now former Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan approached the activists who are staging a sit-in on the street that runs along the Armenian Ministry of Finance.

He is attempting to convince the activists to vacate the street, follow him to the ministry hall, and to discuss all the matters of their concern with respect to the controversial funded pension law.

Capital city Yerevan Police Chief Ashot Karapetyan, on the other hand, has gone to bring Acting Finance Minister Davit Sargsyan down to speak with the activists.

Karapetyan himself told the aforementioned to the activists, and asked them to leave the street and go to the Finance Ministry building.

The activists, however, stated that they will stay where they are sitting for the past three hours.

The Yerevan Police chief is already inside the ministry building, the Armenian News-NEWS.am reporter informed.
A group of red-beret Police special forces are patrolling the ministry entrance.
