YEREVAN. - The privileged 20 percent of Armenia's elite imposes its
will on the 80 percent, that is, on the people.
Opposition Armenian National Congress (ANC) MP Nikol Pashinyan noted
the abovementioned during his address at Saturday's rally.
The rally is held at capital city Yerevan's Liberty Square, and by the
"Dem Em [I am against]" civic initiative which opposes the new pension
law in Armenia.
Pashinyan recalled that President Serzh Sargsyan had confessed that
although 80 percent of the people in Armenia are unhappy with the
introduction of the mandatory funded pension system in the country,
they will introduce this system.
"The key reason for our problems is hidden herein. Eighty percent of
the Armenian citizens are the bearers of our country's supreme power;
it is the people of Armenia. In this case, who are those who dare to
declare that they will bring this decision to life?" the opposition MP
asked.
He added that the "Dem Em" movement is not a battle for the sake of
money, but rather for the people's rights, democracy, and the
Constitution.
"There is no doubt that this movement will triumph," the ANC deputy added.
"Gentlemen of the [Armenian] authorities, you look for money in the
wrong place because the robbed people have no money. For the money you
want, contact the oligarchs who, according to the international
organization data, have brought $6.2 billion out of Armenia in the
last ten years," Nikol Pashinyan stated.
