by Haykakan Zhamanak editor Nikol Pashinyan was also presented.

policy on Karabakh conflict and Armenian-Turkish relations as failure.
"Turkey wants Karabakh and will get it. President Serzh Sargsyan sold
Karabakh on May 8 in Prague," he said.
Serzh Sargsyan can save the situation only if he consolidates the
nation, releases political prisoners and starts dialogue with the
opposition, according to Ter-Petrosyan.
After the rally, the oppositionists marched down Mashtots avenue,
singing the songs of the First Republic, when Dashnaktsutyun was
in power.
