    Fasting Pleases God

    03:50 pm | March 16, 2013 | Politics


    Today Anahit Melkonyan who has been a chess coach for 30 year,
    announced a one-day hunger strike in Freedom Square. She replaced poet
    Violet Gevorgyan.
    Mrs. Melkonian with this step protests against Catholicos's statement:

    "He has made a mistake about fasting, Fasting Pleases God",- she said.

    Meanwhile, signature collection still goes on in Freedom square under
    the title:"I support the struggle of Armenia".

    Responsible of the lists Shushan says that the citizens are very
    active. In her words, the citizens are signing in support of the
    struggle of Raffi Hovannisian, saying that Raffi's struggle is also
    their struggle.

    "Heritage" party Anahit Bakhshyan added that every man has brought his
    opinion to Freedom square, such a pluralistic environment that is
    hard to imagine.

    Raffi Hovannisian did not have lack of guests during the night, he was
    visited by many people interested in his health condition and some of
    them have been there all night long.

    Rule of Law (OEK) party members Mher Sahgeldyab and Khacik Harutyunyan
    also visited him urging Mr. Hovhannisyan to get out of the hunger
    strike.

    By the way, since yesterday 8 young people expressed their support to
    Raffi Hovannisian who arrived in Yerevan from Vanadzor and are
    students. They will stop their sit-down strike tomorrow morning.
