Chairman of the Union for Self-Determination (AIM) Paruyr Hayrikyan today ended his 6-day hunger strike without achieving success. Hayrikyan demanded that Serzh Sargsyan step down as president of Armenia. Today Hayrikyan prayed for Armenian authorities, “My Lord, please put our government on the right path, but if you think that it is impossible to do, take them to you,” said the AIM chairman. Paruyr Hayrikyan today came to Liberty Square to sum up the results of his six-day protest. He said the seven adherents that joined him during the hunger strike had gone to church to ‘ask for wisdom for the rulers.’ Few people had come to the square to listen to Hayrikyan.
