"Let's rally unanimously near the Matenadaran!"
Support A1+!On the eve of an opposition's rally of March 1 over 44 political prisoners issued a statement which runs;
After a crackdown on the opposition's rally of last March, the criminal regime staged a coup and spared no effort to break down and crush public determination and will to struggle for their fundamental rights. But all their efforts failed. On the eve of the March 1 rally the authorities apply the same methods to bar your participation in the rally.
Dear compatriots! Do not fear or pay attention to the illegal menaces of the regime as they do not have any right to ban the rally. The right to assemblies is set down in the Armenian Constitution. Instead of intervening with the rally the authorities had better create favourable conditions for it.
Hence, we appeal to everyone to take part in the rally with a winner's resolution in order to
• end the "cause" our friends sacrificed for,
• disclose and punish the perpetrators of the March 1 bloodshed,
• release the political prisoners,
resist tax and economic pressure exerted by the regime.
We call on everyone to meet the first day of spring near the Matenadaran, at 3.00 March 1.
