“Our steps serve as a milestone”
"The time is up for these authorities. Our actions are leading up to that day after day and we must keep going," leader of "Republic" ("Hanrapetutyun") Party Aram Sargsyan announced today at Freedom Square.
He recalled the words of his fellow villager, a notable political figure, saying nobody needs brains to be in politics.
"I won't mention that person's name, but the government is guided by this principle," Sargsyan mentioned and, as an example, he recalled the authorities' threats to destroy the tents put up at the square and disperse the rally.
"Whoever tries to go against these authorities, they are attacked by force. This can't go on," Aram Sargsyan underlined.
He reminded the words of world renowned French-Armenian singer-composer Charles Aznavour who said "Armenia is unfortunately being emptied and that is being done by a couple of people."
At the end of his speech, leader of "Republic" Party admired those gathered at Freedom Square, especially those who had spent nights there. "Our steps serve as a milestone. There is no end to our actions. This country is ours and we will decide who will lead it."
