We are in a war for our future - Vazgen Manukyan
"Before attending this rally, I had been asked by friends to present the program of our government, a program it will implement when it comes to power. I got prepared, outlined the key points on a paper but when I came here, I realized that it was not the most important thing to do now, as the time will come for that," Vazgen Manukyan, the candidate for the PM's post from the Homeland Salvation Front stated on Tuesday during the rally at Republic Square in Yerevan.
Manukyan stressed that there are no elections currently and it is not the proper time to show whose political program is better. "On the one hand we are facing the destruction of the homeland, on the other - its restoration and future progress," Manukyan said, adding not the governments are building the country, but the people of Armenia, the people who stand in the Square.
Manukyan called on all citizens in front of computer, TV and mobile screens to take to the streets: "It is no more important whom you like or not. The future of all of us is being decided right now. Join us and together we will decide on the wright and the wrong. Like in a war all layers of the society are mixed for a common cause to save the homeland, we are in a war now, the war for our future."
Manukyan next called on the army leadership and the police to join the people, since they are the real Armenia.
"We are Armenia!" Manukyan stated.
