“Army shouldn’t interfere in politics”
Former mayor of Aparan, freedom fighter Razmik Petrosyan started his speech at Freedom Square by congratulating everyone on the 20th anniversary of Armenia's independence.
Addressing the gathered, Petrosyan mentioned that whereas they used to fight for gaining independence, now they are fighting for seizing again.
Touching upon the country's social state, he mentioned that his friends in combat who are disabled are left in the middle of nowhere. "Many freedom fighters have become the ones doing what the authorities tell them to do," said Petrosyan.
In his speech, Razmik Petrosyan also touched upon the army.
"There can't be a stable situation in the army when it is used for political interest. The only one to blame for that is the illegitimate government," said the former mayor of Aparan.
"We must have a legitimate government so that the army doesn't interfere in politics, just like what happened on March 1, 2008," said Petrosyan.
"The movement is entering the stage of triumph," said the ANC member in closing.
