Heritage party leader Raffi Hovannisian held a march from Yerevan's Liberty Square to the Memorial to Armenian Genocide victims.

Live long children, but don't live like us... Raffi Hovannisian started his speech at Liberty Square with the famous words of Armenian writer Hovhannes Tumanyan.
He stressed that the new Armenia they are building today will become the rightful holder of Genocide recognition and its fair compensation.

"Today is a day of remembrance and silence" said the Heritage party leader.

After the speech, Raffi Hovannisian, accompanied by his supporters, headed to the Tsisternakberd hilltop where the group laid flowers to the memorial to the Genocide victims.
