Citizens want change of power
Support A1+!"There should be a coarser attitude toward the authorities," this is what architect Aramayis Aslanyan told "A1+" during a survey on the street. Aslanyan says the cards for the coarse attitude shouldn't be laid out yet. "This is truly a very difficult "chess match"," said the architect.
Other participants of the survey voiced hope that the Armenian National Congress would clarify its new strategy at today's rally.
Haykaram Aloyan sees change of power as the only way out of this difficult social-economic situation. According to him, only then will the opposition be able to reopen factories and reduce unemployment.
"That is the only way to put an end to tolerance, eradicate monopolies and see that each citizen live dignified in his country," said Varuzhan Soghomonyan.
There were also citizens who said the opposition and the authorities should unite as one to improve Armenia's social-economic state.
Rafik Poghosyan, who was selling apricots in central Yerevan, mentioned that he felt pain seeing how people barely make a living. "The country has been divided into the rich and the poor," said Poghosyan and expressed regret that he couldn't take part in the ANC rally due to lack of time.
The ANC will hold a rally today at Freedom Square at 18:30. There to give his speech will be RA First President Levon Ter-Petrosyan.
