/PanARMENIAN.Net/ ARF Dashnaktsutyun has started a rally and hunger
strike near Foreign Ministry and Government buildings, as a sign
of protest against Protocols on Normalization of Armenian-Turkish
Ties. Protesters are holding posters reading, "No Preconditions!", "No
Acceptance, No Concessions, Protest!". There is also a stand containing
ARFD's demands proposed to be included in Armenian-Turkish Protocols.
Besides, protesters and ARFD representatives have started a
signature campaign in support of their proposals. "We demand that
authorities include proposed changes in Protocols. Those documents are
anti-Armenian and cannot be signed in such format. We'll continue the
protest and hunger strike unless all our proposals are considered,"
ARFD parliamentarian Artyusha Shahbazyan said.
ARFD Bureau member Vahan Hovhannisyan noted in turn that party has
not waived its demand for FM Edward Nalbandyan's resignation. "It's
two week since Protocols have been published, but Armenia has not yet
started political consultations on Armenian-Turkish relations. Public
at large is not practically aware of current developments," ARFD
Bureau member noted.
24 people, including ARFD's youth wing representatives and Supreme
Body members are now reported on hunger strike.
