YEREVAN, OCTOBER 30, NOYAN TAPAN. Armenians had an exclusive
role in the issue of collapse of the Soviet Union. As National
Self-Determination Union Chairman Paruyr Hayrikian said on October 30,
political prisoners of different nations joining the United National
Party in the 60-s jointly struggled against the USSR. In his words,
in the 70-s of the previous century political prisoners marked October
30 as a day of political prisoners and their protection, with this
registering at the international level the fact of existence of
political prisoners in the USSR. The political prisoners marked this
day by one-day hunger-strike and appeals. As P.Hayrikian informed
journalists, 100 mln political prisoners died in the USSR, in the
country with the greatest number of political prisoners in the
mankind's history.
