Soldiers sit on an armoured vehicle in central Yerevan March 3, 2008. Armenia's military said on Sunday it would confront opposition protests with force, a day after riots killed eight people in the ex-Soviet state. Outgoing President Robert Kocharyan imposed a 20-day emergency on the capital Yerevan on Saturday after protesters accusing him of rigging last month's presidential election battled police with petrol bombs and sticks.
