Support A1+!

“After the March 1 events this is the first rally sanctioned by the City Hall,” said HHSh member Suren Sureniants at today's rally.

He believes that the struggle has entered a final phase as Armenian people are worth legitimate authorities.

Samvel Harutiunian who made a speech in the name of the “Armenian Volunteers’ Union” said that still in 2006 the Union called for a combat against election tampering which would help overthrow the acting regime. The statement was co-authored by Zhirair Sefilian and Vardan Malkhassian who were later jailed.

“The “Armenian Volunteers’ Union” publicly voices support for the Armenian National Congress. We state that Levon Ter-Petrossian who reinterpreted the past has earned the right to be called Armenia's President. The rally is aimed at restoring the constitutional right and making Ter-Petrossian the country's president,” runs the statement of the Armenian Volunteers’ Union.

Armen Martirossian made a speech in the name of the Zharangutiun (Heritage) Party.
