Nation-wide Movement headed by L. Ter-Petrosyan has initiated signature
collection to testify against ex-president Robert Kocharyan at Hague
Tribunal.

A member of the Nation-wide Movement David Shahnazaryan said at Friday
Club Monday that ‘Robert Kocharyan said in his recent interview to
Mediamax that it was he who ordered to fire at demonstrators on 1 March
and it was he who order to start political arrests in the country. Over
the ten years of his presidency and after it Robert Kocharyan was and
remains a factor destabilizing the country. He is guilty in crimes
against the people and humanity and his place is in a cell of Hague
prison. For this purpose, we have started collecting signatures’.

Shahnazaryan underlined that they have no task to collect a definite
number of signatures. However, he is sure that their action will
be supported both in Armenia and outside it. D. Shanazaryan was the
first to sign the relevant statement by the Movement.
