President Robert Kocharyan estimated the events of March 1-2 in
Yerevan as a heavy blow on the international reputation of our country.

"If we try to estimate Armenia’s reputation by a retrospective look,
we will see that a month ago Armenia was considered the most stable
and swiftly developed country in the region. What did we gain in
one second?

When I watch the videos I really feel shame. I can’t believe that
those things really happened.

So we must all have courage to give sensible assessment to what
happened and together we must try to re-establish both the rating of
our country and the attitude of the world towards our people." The
President announced yesterday.
