ARMENIAN OPPOSITION CONVENES NEW DEMONSTRATION

Published in News Digest

By empty (4/22/2002 issue of the CACI Analyst)

Up to 5,000 people participated in a 19 April demonstration in Yerevan convened by 13 opposition parties to protest the closure of the independent A1+television station, RFE/RL's Yerevan bureau reported. The station was forced to cease broadcasting on 2 April after losing a tender to retain the frequency on which it broadcast. It was the third consecutive Friday protest against perceived measures by the Armenian leadership to muzzle independent broadcasters.
