Regretfully, the wishes that our people had 20 years ago didn’t come true, said Armenian National Congress (HAK) representative Davit Shahnazaryan in speaking to Epress.am about the Independence Day Council.
“Independence, for me, is an absolute value, it’s our people’s dream. But today already there’s a need to restore that independence somewhat. Let me put it simply: this is not [today’s government] authorities’ celebration, this is solely our people’s celebration,” he said.
According to Shahnazaryan, the government is essentially against statehood in general.
