Dozens of opposition protesters arrested in Armenia

Dozens were arrested as hundreds of opposition supporters staged sit-ins and attempted to block road traffic in Armenia's capital Friday to protest ex-president Serzh Sarkisian's election as prime minister. Many of the demonstrators waved national flags and held up placards reading "Sarkisian is a dictator". Some attempted to block roads in response to repeated calls by the leader of the protests, opposition MP Nikol Pashinyan to paralyse traffic.
