Whoever’s name we announce here as candidate for Prime Minister, there will be people who will have differing views. This is what leader of the Armenian National Guard NGO, freedom fighter Arshak Zakaryan said during a protest held in front of the Prosecutor General’s Office today.
“We propose to set up an ad-hoc government. The incumbent authorities are trying to delay this as much as possible and stay clung to their positions. The Prime Minister says he wants to stay and organize elections, but it’s clear that he will use administrative resources and falsify those elections. They say they weren’t corrupt when they came to power, but they annulled the penalties of hundreds of thousands of citizens and released prisoners before elections. Isn’t this a bribe? We have given the Prosecutor General time to detain Pashinyan. He should have been detained a long time ago. Prosecutor General Artur Davtyan has presented substantiated facts, but is there anyone who doubts that we Armenians are living in a dictatorship? We hope the Prosecutor General comes. If he doesn’t, we also have the responsibility to detain him because he refuses to fulfill the people’s demand.”
According to him, after the authorities resign, the ad-hoc government needs to comprise several intellectuals, military figures and, why not, honorary officers.
