Additional information:

On April 20, the Lori Region correspondent of Public Radio of Armenia Lusine Sargsyan failed to arrive in time for the meeting with the Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan organised at Stepanavan College №1 due to the uncoordinated actions of the government and security service staff: the procedure of clarifying the lists, which turned out to be incomplete, checking the documents, and identifying the participants took too long. As a result, the journalist was unable to send the information to the editorial office in time and it was not published.
