“People’s collective force is the only winning card”
Speaking at today's rally was former political prisoner, former MP Sasun Mikayelyan who was greeted with warm rounds of applause and screams of "Sasun, Sasun".
Mikayelyan began his speech by thanking all participants of the pan-national movement.
"If we are together at this decisive moment, it means we can do a lot together. I have been and remain your soldier and assure you that no dungeon can change my spirit."
Mikayelyan stressed that the ANC's primary objective must be to bring a new sweep to the pan-national movement.
"If the ANC engages in dialogue with the authorities, our only winning card will be the people's collective force," announced Sasun Mikayelyan.
Recalling the days of the victory in Shushi, Mikayelyan mentioned that that was one of the most glorious victories of the Armenian nation.
"We were able to bring our centuries-old enemy down to its knees as a nation under the leadership of then Commander-in-Chief Levon Ter-Petrosyan. We mustn't forget that the war is not over and we have no right to place that victory at risk."
Mikayelyan noted that the time has come to continue the struggle more united and with more vigor.
"I am certain that there will be more victories soon and that Armenia has a future."
