Diaspora Protects Nicol Pashinyan

53 people from USA and Canada, among whom there are scientists and science workers, teachers and economists and experts from different spheres, joined the protection of Nicol Pashinyan – the editor of the “Haykakan Zhamanak” (Armenian Time) newspaper. People of Armenian and non-Armenian origins sent a message to the Armenian authorities. The message says:

“We, Armenians living in the Diaspora and our non-Armenian friends, are deeply concerned in the imprisonment of Nikol Pashinyan, editor-in-chief of Haykakan Zhamanak (“Armenian Time”) daily in Armenia, and his treatment in jail. While Mr. Pashinyan’s voluntary surrender to law enforcement agencies should have been duly noted by the Armenian authorities, the veteran journalist has experienced coercion while behind bars.”
