RAFFI HOVANNISIAN: WE OVERCAME OBSTACLES, BUT DID NOT RETREAT
Saturday,
April 20
"We have gathered today to state about yet another stage of our
struggle". The leader of Heritage Party, former presidential candidate
Raffi Hovannisian started his speech with these words. The meeting
took place at Ani Plaza Hotel.
"We overcame obstacles together, but we did not retreat. We fell
down, but we did not retreat. We vowed together to abolish links with
the current authorities. We will never recant our vow," Hovannisian
declared.
In his words, the first serious ordeal on April 9 did not undermine
their movement, but only strengthened it. Raffi Hovannisian called
upon the "unelected authorities" to realize their mistake and leave.
"I declare that from this moment, the organization process of a civil
movement of the new Armenia is starting in the political field -
on the demand of the people, not at my request", Hovannisian stated.
He said that all political forces may join their struggle, but on
condition that their party interests not come first.
