ANC held its last rally and march of this year (Video).

Armenia will see a new wave of protests in February next year, an activist of the opposition alliance of the Armenian National Congress (ANC) has said.

NikolPashinyan made the statement on Liberty Square as the ANC started a campaign dedicated to the anniversary of the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights led by RA first President Levon Ter-Petrosyan on Dec. 10, 14:00pm.

"In February, a new wave of uprising will start so that non-elected authorities will go away from Armenia," said Pashinyan who is also the Chief Editor of local daily "Haykakan Zhamanak".

"No state official will give us our rights. Citizens should by all means demand their rights," he added.

ANC Coordinator Levon Zurabyan, in turn, said that it was due to the pressure the ANC exerted on the ruling authorities that they released those citizens arrested over the March 1 events.

Zurabyan also said that civil society is becoming more active in the country and is fighting for its rights more actively then before.

Later the ANC supporters marched from Liberty Square towards to Mashtots Avenue from where they will go to the area near Alexander Miasnikyan statue – the area where most of the clashes with the riot police took place in 2008.

At least ten people were killed, dozens wounded and arrested at the post-election unrest in Yerevan in 2008 as citizens took to the streets, claiming the presidential vote had been stolen.
