The Yelk (Way Out) faction left the session of the Yerevan Council of Elders when the discussions on two projects, suggested by the Yerkir Tsirani party, started. The first project reffered to renaming street named after Vazgen Sargsyan and putting a monument to the memory of March 1 victims. The Yelk faction explained that they did not approve the project on renaiming the street named after Vazgen Sargsyan. As to the monument, the Yelk faction did not mind; but they considered the justifications to be distorted. According to the members of the faction, an attempt was made to reduce the participation of Serzh Sargsyan and Robert Kocharyan in those events.
