Protesting Karabakh war heroes speak of future plans (video)
At the Nagorno-Karabakh war heroes’ latest rally in Yerevan, one of the veterans, Khachik Avetisyan, spoke of the protesting group’s future plans aimed at the protection of their rights and the reinstatement of social justice.
“We’ll decide the next step at the next rally when our companions-in-arms come here with their detachment flags and uniforms - but without weapons - and force everybody, shoulder to shoulder, to gather here to solve the ptoblems of our present and future,” he said.
As for the past activities, Avetisyan said they have heard many interesting and extremely important proposals by intellectuals, as well as seen success in their work with the youth. Asked about any plans for meeting representatives of political parties for joint discussions, the war veteran answered, “ In the present circumstances, a round table is not even a matter of desire; it’s an absolute must. This has to be a demand by not only the freedom fighters [war veterans] but also the nation that has joined the home-guard.”
The former political prisoner Vardan Malkhasyan later delivered a speech to express his evaluation of the Armenian authorities’ policies.
“Every single day, these [people] desecrate our traditional, national values; it is now time for us to announce the start of the Armenian people’s national-liberation struggle. The Artsakh liberation war has not finished; it continues in a tenfold intriguing manner. Any Armenian in this struggle has to realize – setting aside ambitions – that the country’s salvation depends on him or her,” he said. “Our goal is not just to topple the authorities; the next thing is build a state and a government which will be called Armenia.”
The veterans’ next rally is due next Thursday.
