You shouldn’t make a big deal out of this, especially when you’re aware of all the recent geopolitical events surrounding Armenia and the war, sabotages and whatnot. Heck, we’ve had many of our own take military footage and send it to Azerbaijan for a mere 300$, given that, that one person reporting you to do police most likely didn’t had ruining your day or racism in mind, but rather, he just wanted the police to verify you just in case, with no ill in mind. Obviously the language barrier made it more complex than it should have been, had you and the police were able to have a conversation, it most likely wouldn’t have taken longer than 15-20m.
You’re really stretching on getting frustrated from the person that reported you, have an open mind.

I agree with the other commenters. I was once asked to delete pictures of my phone because I photographed a tuned Niva, which turned out belonged to the army police. They were polite, though. I speak Russian, which helped.
Besides, the situation around and in Armenia the police and society is very chill.

I was with the writer who seemed to have handled the situation in stride until he went off unhinged and started calling the man who reported him a fuck, creep, freak, and idiot. That was completely uncalled for. Good on him. We often criticise ourselves (Armenians) for not calling the police ever and handling things ourselves, which may result in misunderstandings and conflict, and here we have someone actually being upset with the opposite.
