‘TO EXPOSE EXISTING PRECONDITIONS IS THE CHIEF GOAL’

Eleven Armenian political parties which had voiced their concerns on
initialed Armenian-Turkish protocols before, announced their decision
of joint activities.

At today’s press-conference Armenian Revolutionary Faction
Dashnaktsutyun’s member Armen Rustamyan has published a statement
with protest against initialed protocols.

According to Mr. Rustamyan, the chief goal of their activities is
"to join forces on the basis of a common position and prevent the
process called by protocols."

"Exposing the available pre-conditions is a priority task. Through
our meetings we’ve found out that most people have no idea about
protocols ant their dangerous items, so our association’s first
activity is to break the blockade of opinions and to present another
point of view. At least, nation is a master, so neither the President
nor authorities can deal with this issue," said Armen Rustamyan,
noting that statements on absence of preconditions are false.

Asked whether ARFD has applied to Armenian National Congress with
proposal to join them, Armen Rustamyan said that they hadn’t propounded
such a proposal to ANC as a single structure, but they had discussed
it with some its member-parties.

Rustamyan has announced that a rally protest will be held on October
9, starting on Republic Square with further procession towards
Tsitsernakaberd Memorial.
