Today at 14:00 the opposition powers are going to make a joint public meeting not far from the Matenadaran and inform people about their further activities, how to struggle against as they say “this illegal government”. Today at 16:00 the oppositionists will ride through Marzes of Armenia and communities of Yerevan by their cars and will horn. They are planning to go to the Matenadaran building and make a public meeting there. Yesterday Aram Sargsyan called on people not far from the Matenadaran: “Press the horn guys. Show them that it is a shame. If they need to provide the adequate number of “yes”, we will give them some. We have more 5000 ballots voted “yes”, which they couldn’t stuff”, -said Aram Sargsyan and threw the ballots down the wall near the Matenadaran. People started to tear the ballots to shreds. Then he started to speak about the announcement of Serj Sargsyan when he said that if he organized a meeting and there were so few people there he would kill himself. “If I were not elected by people, if I were rejected by people for three times, I would kill myself for sure. They shouldn’t say these kinds of things, because people hate them. These people impatiently wait the moment you will get off, because they are disappointed about you, you are the trouble of these people. You have nothing common with these people, you are foreigners for us, you have never been a part of us, this is the reason you are so nasty”, -said Aram Sargsyan. Then he advised Kocharyan to kill himself, because if he didn’t do that people would take that responsibility (by the way, there were water spraying cars and barbed wires around the president’s office building). “His brain is so poor. He must be shame of this (about the security measures). They hide in their rooms behind the bodies of policemen and speak about suicide. He’d better come here to the public himself and we will see whether he will be able to commit suicide or just people will do that faster. Don’t be scared, we are not coming there today, we will tell you when we are coming, but I am afraid you will not be there any more. We know that you will locate barbed wires there and then run away, we know that”, -said Aram Sargsyan.
Head of NDU Vazgen Manoukyan said that while they were struggling for independence and Karabakh in 60s, Robert Kocharyan lived with the rules of Azerbaijan and dreamed of becoming a factory department head to buy a cheap car for him. “We both reached our goals, but there is a difference now. After becoming a president he wants to make his dream come true. I mean he wants to take all bad habits and traditions of the Soviet Union, Eastern and Western countries and apply here. If he were alone, it would be ok, but he gave good positions to all bandits and made an authority of bandits in Armenia. Can we forgive this? Are we going to live with this? This is not a big problem, we have struggled with the Soviet Union, we have won Azerbaijan that was several times stronger us. We will use all methods, don’t be scared. We have solved more difficult problems. Those people who can’t resist this can stay far, because we will not let some bandits ruin this country”, -said Vazgen Manoukyan.
Yesterday Stepan Demirchyan made a little bit of a different speech: “During the presidential elections I said they could announce not 67 %, but even 90 %, but still they would remain illegal. I am saying the same concerning the referendum. They can even say that more then two million citizens have voted for it, but that’s all the same, people see what it is, they realize. This government ignored citizens one more time. We will not bear it, people can’t bear it. It is fraud everywhere, we will struggle against this”, -said S. Demirchyan.
Ohan Duryan was also there. He said that he didn’t want to live his life full of fraud and that he couldn’t take this fraud to heaven with him: “My heart is breaking; I don’t want to die when I see this much fraud going on here. I want Armenians to live well but not to be like those people that speak about democracy but actually don’t know what it is. Please ask everyone to come here, there must be more people here today. I lived with communists too, but there wasn’t so much fraud then”, -said Ohan Duryan. Academic Rafael Ghazaryan called on everyone not to let their passion come down and said: “Why are you so passive? Why do people stay at their homes? I know that most of them hate the government but they still stay at their homes. Why? You can assist us to save ourselves from them. I thought Tigran Torosyan was an intelligent and honest person. Doesn’t he understand that he takes part in national betrayal? As well as Vahan Hovhannisyan and Hrant Margaryan. My wife and I were always involved in court proceedings to protect you when you were jailed. Why? Did we do this so you can protect these betrayers? What do they think about? Do they think about money, about their positions?”.
Head of “Heritage” political party Raffi Hovhannisyan was standing near the flag of Armenia in the Freedom Square for two days to express his complaints against the government. He left home to have a rest after he passed the flag to head of “Republic” political party Aram Sargsyan. Yesterday he returned again. “This public meeting proves that our public still advocates freedom. You can keep your speeches about democracy and national interests for yourselves, because our nation is not a toy for you to play with”, -said Raffi Hovhannisyan and added that those violations would be the last shame of our country. “This is the last shame of our generation. But this will not happen any more”, -said Raffi Hovhannisyan.
