When the police behaves well, doesn’t provoke disorder, everything goes in an ideal state (smoothly), said Armenian National Congress (HAK) coordinator Levon Zurabyan to demonstrators gathered on Yerevan’s Northern Ave. today. <\/p>\n

The march organized by the opposition group concluded without incident on Northern Ave. Zorabyan noted that in the period following March 1, 2008, as a march in and of itself, this gathering was the largest.<\/p>\n

“This regime, against which we are fighting, today is weakening, is breaking up before your eyes, but our movement is becoming better organized and tactical,” he said. <\/p>\n
