RAFFI HOVANNISIAN: SITUATION SHOULD BE CHANGED UNTIL THE END OF APRIL
19:06 | March 28,2014 | Politics
The rally organized by the opposition Heritage Party started at
Yerevan's Liberty square under the national anthem and in the rain.
"We are continuing our struggle," Heritage leader Raffi Hovannisian
said in his address. "The aim of this meeting is to express our wish
to live in a sovereign and legal Armenia, call for extraordinary
elections and make the government hand power to people. Our aim is
to make this a united square for everyone."
Commenting on Armenia's decision to vote against the UN resolution
that declares the Crimea referendum and Russia's annexation of the
Crimea illegal, Mr Hovannisian said, "They were unable to abstain
from voting on the resolution as did China and Kazakhstan.
"As long as the acting authorities are in power, we can forget about
the international recognition of the Genocide, Artsakh sovereignty
and territorial integrity. We can forget about environmental and
national interests. Looting, inflation, sale of national property,
gas and energy deals will continue unless the illegitimate authorities
are unseated," he said.
"The change of power should be started from the highest echelons. All
those you believe in this imperative - be it an extra-parliamentary
force, a freedom fighter, a peasant or a citizen - should join us
and build a united square," he said adding that the situation in the
country should be changed until the end of April.
