French citizen and Karabakh war veteran Sargis Hatspanian has been on
a hunger strike for 22 days, Spokesman of the Penitentiary Department
of the RA Ministry of Justice Arsen Babayan informed A1+.

Remind that Hatspanian chose a termless hunger-strike as an extreme
and desperate form of protest. He demands an immediate release of
Armenia’s political prisoners.

Hatspanian is charged with perjury /Article 333 of the RA Criminal
Code/. He is indicted for announcing an alleged attempt upon Serzh
Sargsyan.

Sargis Hatspanyan was taken into custody on November 10

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
