Armenian opposition leader Nikol Pashinyan has called for a nationwide campaign of civil disobedience after he failed to be elected prime minister.
Despite running as the only candidate, Pashinyan did not get the necessary 53 votes in parliament.
He declared the decision an insult, and urged his supporters to strike.
Al Jazeera's Robin Forestier-Walker reports from Yerevan, Armenia.
