YEREVAN, AUGUST 26, NOYAN TAPAN. Despite the regime's aggressive
actions which are accompanied by brute force, People's Movement will
continue its just struggle, coordinator of the center of the Armenian
National Congress (ANC) Levon Zurabian stated at the August 26 press
conference.
In his words, the attack on the sit-down strikers early August 25 and
the police actions on seizure of the stands and posters with photos
of political prisoners bear evidence of "a low intellect of those in
power" who are in a state of panic today. According to L. Zurabian,
realizing that they have been defeated in the political field,
the authorities are trying to move the struggle into a field of
force. "The authorities have lost their cool and are trying to stop
the popular movement by brute methods. However, it will not save them
and the power pyramid will collapse anyway. By using repressive means,
the dictatorship may only gain a temporary victory," L. Zurabian said.
As regards the actions that ANC is going to take in response to the
steps of the authorities, L. Zurabian stated that ANC will adapt
the popular movement to the strengthened dictatorship and will find
methods of struggle which will be in line with the new realities. In
his words, it is obvious that all these steps of the authorities are
aimed at preventing the opposition meeting to be held on September
5. The representative of the ANC assured those present that the
opposition will not succumb to provocation and get into a clash.
