“Jirayr Sefilyan refuses Serzh Sargsyan’s resignation” (video)
Artsakh national hero Vitali Balasanyan today during the meeting with the journalists in the territory of Erebuni police HQ noted that everything will pass peacefully, “Why have I appeared here? As this is my homeland, we fought with most of these guys during the war and they were personally under my command, they participated in different military operations.” He said that Serzh Sargsyan didn’t ask him to come here, “No one asked me, I consider it to be my responsibility.” Mr Balasanyan also highlighted that during the meeting with Jirayr Sefilyan they discussed the issue of laying down the arms, “Jirayr Sefilyan reacted positively to the proposal of laying down the arms, but he brought forward several issues, which mustn’t be presented in detail.” Vitali Balasanyan once again confirmed his thought that there are no political prisoners in Armenia, “Jirayr and his guys call themselves political dissidents. There is no concept like political prisoner in Armenia; those, who say that there are, let them declare it publicly.” He said that Sasna Dzrer group implemented first phase of its actions in an excellent way, “The members of the group qualify their steps in that way. I, of course, condemn; they shouldn’t have done such a thing.” Mr Balasanyan noted that both Jirayr Sefilyan and most of the guys refused the resignation of Serzh Sargsyan. He didn’t mention names and only added, “Though, there are still people, who demand Serzh Sargsyan’s resignation. I have spoken to Jirayr Sefilyan and he said that he refuses Serzh Sargsyan’s resignation.”
