Residents of Gyumri protesting the recent electricity rate hike, while not large in numbers are searching for other ways to express their opposition other than the traditional sit-in.
A public forum was announced for June 27 to discuss their options. Yesterday they gathered at Theater Square, listened to music and danced, and waited to see what developed in Yerevan, the focal point of the movement.
Karen Petrosyan, one Gyumri activist, announced that if force was used to disperse the demonstration in Yerevan they would resort to civil disobedience.
