Nikol Pashinyan addresses the participants of the rally at Liberty
Square.
"My dear compatriots, the proud people of Armenia, It is again February
and again we are here, at Liberty Square, which means that despite
their painstaking efforts the authorities have been unable to break
the will of Armenian citizens.
"The agenda of today's rally shows that Armenian citizens cannot yet
de jure celebrate a victory in the long-run struggle. Anyway, it is
again February and we are again here, which means that our citizens'
triumph is indivertible," said Mr Pashinyan.
"We are here to look straight into the eyes of violence and say,
"Your defeat is inevitable, dear people! Despite the pessimistic
predictions, the Armenian people have elected their president, but as
it was expected the official figures issued by the Central Election
Commission do not reflect the reality."
On February 18, 2013, people carried out a real revolution, a 30-second
revolution, in the 1988 polling stations in Armenia, as was the case
during the 2008 presidential election. Today our task is clear -
to turn de facto victory into de jure victory.
The forces that are willing to support this victory, must do it without
preconditions, because no one has the right to set preconditions before
people, and public decision is, as a rule, taken for granted. This
is the essence of democracy and constitution.
Raffi Hovannisian has received the vote of confidence and he should
decide the fate of this vote. Either victory or nothing: we cannot
lead the bright people of Armenia to defeat."
Pashinyan called on the ralliers to commemorate the ten victims of
the March 1, 2008 post-election clashes and promise that no more
blood will be shed in the capital.
"Either victory or nothing! Long live Armenian citizens! Long live
our children who will live in a free and happy country!" he said.
