Participants of the opposition rallies started setting upbarricades at the French Embassy in Yerevan.

Impeachment bloc leader Nikol Pashinyan called to construct defense positions to block the way for armored personnel carriers and water cannons. "It's a convenient place, since the authorities will not dare to use force near the diplomatic missions of France and Italy," he said.

He told to place barricades with the help of garbage cans, part benches and everything they can find. Presently, they are dismantling a new building opposite to the Embassy, Novosti Armenia reports.

The protesters demand to return Levon Ter-Petrosyan, who is presently in his residence surrounded by law enforcers.
