`MARCH 1′ ` MUCH TO LEARN FROM IT
March 1, the first day of spring when we have so many expectations,
hopes to create, start everything from anew. But, unfortunately,
things have been changed for Armenia at least in 2009.
On the night of 2 March the legislative forces and a huge crowd of
local citizens opposed each other in the capital city of Armenia,
Yerevan. They attacked each other and left as an aftermath ten deaths,
hundreds of injured people, financial losses, limited rights and
feeling of shock and despair. The `political’ particle was important
but it was not the only fact. The basic reasons were social and public
ones. And the `political stream’ has just leaded them.
A year has passed since those famous bloody events of March 1,
2008. `March 1′ is much spoken about, discussed, and we try to find
the guilties, to understand what happened and to evaluate the
facts. `March 1’events are important to escape the same mistakes.
