Russia and Azerbaijan signed a document, agreeing to settle the Karabakh conflict within the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan - Vladimir Karapetyan.

Gayane Arustamyan, a deputy candidate running for next month's parliamentary elections from Constituency N 1, was the first to address opposition ralliers in Yerevan on Friday.

She called the participants of the rally ‘freedom fighters who have been fighting against Serzh Sargsyan and his Republican Party of Armenia (HHK) for five years now.

According to the deputy candidate, the regime led by Serzh Sargsyan has ‘twined fascist ideology around the necks of Armenian citizens.'

"Addressing the people of his country, Serzh Sargsyan usually says ‘My dear Armenians' thereby trampling on the rights of Yezidis, Kurds, Assyrians, Ukrainians, Jews and other nationalities who live in Armenia," she said.

Gayane Arustamyan stressed that desperate people are quitting the country; others are committing suicide. Middle-aged men are growing old in front of our eyes.
The Armenian National Congress (HAK) candidate views the May 6 parliamentary elections as a way out of the grave situation.

In his speech, HAK candidate running in Constituency N2 Vladimir Karapetyan dwelt on the external challenges faced by Armenia. He said that recently Russia and Azerbaijan have signed a document, agreeing to settle the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict within the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan.

"The document allows Azerbaijan to put forward a similar resolution in the UN Security Council. If earlier, we hoped that Russia, as a permanent member of the UN, can veto a similar resolution, today cannot rely on Moscow," he said.
