Alternative joining a number of renowned politicians, among them
deputy of parliament Yerjanik Abgaryan, chairman of Armat Babken
Ararktsyan, editor of Armenian Times newspaper Nikol Pashinyan and
some others. Leader of Democratic Motherland, Petros Makeyan said the
group has signed a statement attracting a dozen of political and public
figures around it. Makeyan said they are proposing an alternative to
the existing political system. As a primary goal the group aims to oust
a group of bureaucracy who is "protecting its own skin."
