An anti-government protest rally was held in Ulaanbaatar, the capital of Mongolia, during which demonstrators blocked the central avenue of Genghis.

As the TASS news agency reports, the action is organized by the Alliance of Freedom party. It began on Saturday morning, January 11, with a small peaceful picket in the central square of Sukhbaatar.

People began to join the picketers and by the evening the action had grown to a large-scale demonstration, in which there were more than a thousand people. Among them were young people in a state of alcoholic intoxication.

The demonstrators accuse the Mongolian government of failing to combat smog, traffic congestion, poverty, corruption and unemployment. At the same time, representatives of the Alliance of Freedom party refuse to have a dialogue with the authorities.

It is not known whether there will be less corruption in Mongolia because of such drunken protests. But there are definitely more traffic jams. Due to the demonstration in Ulaanbaatar, 15 bus routes were canceled.
