Summary[edit]

Description The first day after the 20-day state of emergency had been lifted after the Armenian presidential election protests. Between 5pm and 7pm, about 1,000 citizens -- mostly women -- participated in a peaceful and silent protest and vigil to remember those who died on March 1, condemn the government's actions, and to recognize the more than 100 political prisoners.

In this picture (4:44 pm), riot police have cordoned off Liberty Square and the sidewalks of adjacent streets (all other major squares in Yerevan were likewise cordoned off). (Note that photography was not allowed.)
