ANC member urges for civil disobedience campaign September 23, 2011 - 20:08 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Armenian National Congress (ANC) opposition bloc coordinator urged those present at Yerevan-hosted rally to prepare for civil disobedience march. “In March, ANC urged its supporters for civil disobedience campaign. The authorities, aware of public determination, were forced to make concessions and initiate a dialogue. However, the authorities stopped halfway, refusing to make further concessions, believing internal political pressure in Armenia to have subsided,” Levon Zurabyan stressed. Zurabyan called on those gathered to meet the challenge by gathering vast masses in the Liberty Square. “We're must prove the regime that the struggle is not over with the release of political prisoners. Are we ready to fight till the end?” Manukyan questioned those gathered, who chanted, “Yes, Yes, Yes!” in reply. Several thousand people are currently gathered at Liberty Square.
