Yerevan (Yerkir) – ARF Bureau representative Hrant Margaryan delivered
a speech at the rally that was held in Paris on November 15 against
the Armenian-Turkish protocols. The event was organized by the ARF
and the Ramkavar Party.

Margaryan explained why the party first joined the ruling coalition
and then left it, saying that the ARF’s concerns that the ruling
coalition could shift from the national course eventually came true.

Margaryan then criticized a recent speech made by the Armenian National
Congress leader Levon Ter-Petrosyan.

"The balanced stance of the ARF in the Armenian-Turkish relations,
as well as the political steps that followed, have put the Armenian
Pan-National Movement in a desperate state," Margaryan said.

Margaryan concluded his speech by saying that the ARF will fight on
against the protocols.

The full text of the speech is available in Armenian.
