Political analyst slams Armenian government's policy
Political analyst Suren Petrosyan, founder of the For Armenian Statehood Coordination Center, denounced the Armenian government’s policy of concessions to Azerbaijan as he led a march from Tavush Province to Yerevan on Thursday.
"Today, the incumbent Armenian authorities are trying to deprive ordinary citizens, the entire Armenian people of even the chance to dream, to have any ambitions, telling us, "Nothing depends on you, you only have to obey",” he told Panorama.am, calling it a “civilizational crime”.
"All this is from within the people, natural and organic, there’s nothing artificially organized," the political scientist said.
A nationwide rally is scheduled to be held in Yerevan’s central Republic Square later on Thursday.
