Paruyr Hayrikyan: We do not need an anti-constitutional referendum (video)

A rally organized by the Chairman of the Union for National Self-Determination (AIM), Paruyr Hayrikyan, was held on Friday at Liberty Square in Yerevan. In his speech, Paruyr Hayrikyan stressed that he considers the constitutional changes to be an anti-constitutional process which should be halted immediately. He called on all citizens of Armenia to vote against the new Constitution in the December 6 referendum, which, he said, aims at ensuring the ‘reproduction of the current authorities.’ In this context, Hayrikyan recalled the statement of the first president [Levon Ter-Petrosyan] who expressed his disapproval of the constitutional reform. The rally was followed by a march to Bagramyan 26 and back to Liberty Square again.
