SAME PEOPLE VISIT YERABLOOR EVERY YEAR

Politics

Despite the rainy weather Yerabloor was crowded today. NA deputies, representatives of the RA Ministry of Defense, the “Republican party of Armenia” and many others came to put flowers on the graves of the 27 October victims.

Robert Kocharyan and Serge Sargsyan have not sent any flowers. The latter is to arrive from France this morning.

Grandmother Mariah has been visiting Yerabloor for 9 years. Today she came early in the morning and was telling with tears in her eyes that every year the same people came to Yerabloor in the morning.

“I do not remember a year when Robert Kocharyan or Serge Sagsyan visited Yerabloor. The same people come every year to honor the memory of innocent victims”, tells Grandmother Mariah.

14-year-old Gurgen was also among the permanent visitors of Yerabloor. But he visits Yerabloor not only on 27 October to commemorate the innocent victims.

”I often come here. I cannot otherwise, my heart will resist. If I and my friends do not honor these heroes how else shall we bring up, what shall we learn from them? The reminiscences and stories about them only inspire us”, says Gurgen. He ensures that his friends also follow his example, they often visit Yerabloor with or without Gurgen.
