A march dedicated to Human Rights Day, Dec. 10, organized by the
Armenian National Congress (HAK), which began at 1 pm today from
Liberty Square in Yerevan, united members of various groups and social
movements, as well as a dozens of ordinary citizens.
With various signs and Armenian flags, joining the march apart from
HAK representatives and activists were Karabakh War veterans; those
protesting building construction on Sayat-Nova, Komitas, and Amiryan
streets; members of an initiative to stop the rise in the price of
(consumer) gas; and supporters of political activist Shant Harutyunyan,
who was arrested on Nov. 5. A group of youth waved anarchist flags
and walked with a black banner that read "Conquer your rights".
Many of the march participants told Epress.am that they came out
on the street to reclaim their violated rights, and Dec. 10, Human
Rights Day, is another opportunity to raise their concerns.
