Armenian People’s Party leader Tigran Karapetyan predicts thousands will join his rally on Feb 28.

“We will not give up,” he told a news conference in Yerevan. “People want to see new leaders who will renounce the old methods of ruling. We offered our mediation to the authorities but have not received any response yet.”

Karapetyan also presumed that his activity arouses jealousy of the Armenian National Congress. “Let them think how to maintain the financial flow from abroad,” he remarked.

“I allow of existence of reasonable forces in the Armenian National Congress but we will never collaborate with the Armenian National Movement,” the politician said.
