“PEOPLE SHOULD STRIKE IN THE RAIN IN ABNORMAL COUNTRIES” /video/
Support A1+!
Today Armenian women held a march along Yerevan streets in support of the Armenian political prisoners. They directed from Northern Avenue to the Prosecutor’s Office chanting, “Struggle to the end!”
On getting to the Prosecutor’s Office the marchers came into collision with local policemen. “You are soulless servants,” shouted a woman at the policeman elbowing her to the ground.
“ Shame on You! Take a lesson from the Greeks! The death of a fellow raised the whole nation. Thousands of Armenians have been executed, but no one has been punished. I wonder why our people don’t go to streets. I feel pity that there are so many slaves among Armenians,” said member of the Armenian National Congress Anahit Grigoryan helping the women.
Then the protesters marched to the government building which was already chained by policemen. “Betrayer, servant,” they said addressing Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan.
On seeing public activeness and the marchers’ high spirit Advocate Vardan Harutyunyan said, “Today’s events show that people began to realise the meaning of December 10. Normal people of abnormal countries should spend December 10 striking in the rain and snow. It will make the country normal.”
Vardan Harutyunyan is convinced that today’s events firstly encourage the political prisoners. The advocate calls the political prisoners “generators” who give a new impetus to the Movement.
