A video of Armenian police insulting a citizen without a mask has been released.

Axar.az reports that the video released by activist Manuel Manukyan shows police using force against an ordinary citizen.

Manukyan said the footage was unacceptable and called on everyone to unite.

Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan responded to the question on his Facebook page:

"Dear compatriots, the police is a force structure, and those who openly violate the established rules must use force against those who comply with the law. This is my demand from the police. It is also a public demand from the police.”
