Eggs and stabbing during Gyumri rally
17:46 | March 28,2015 | Politics
There was an incident during the rally in Gyumri. When it was
announced that Zhirayr Sefilyan would make a speech, some young men
threw eggs at the participants of the rally. The provocation had no
influence and the action went on. Former Commander of Shushi unit
Zhirayr Sefilyan noted that they would wait until April 24 and
wouldn’t answer. He announced that nothing is possible to change in
our country through elections.
He explained why they invited people to come out into the streets on
April 24. Sefilyan says that on that day all we unite and become
serious. We must understand that there was also our guilt in 1915 as
we didn’t have statehood and we must do everything to preserve the
present statehood.
By the way, during the rally the Founding Parliament member Hrachik
Mirzoyan was stabbed. Fortunately, the injury isn’t serious.
After the rally a woman blamed the organizers for disturbing people of Gyumri.
