Tragic history's watershed of March 1 was opened by authorities, but will be closed by Armenian people, opposition Armenian National Congressleader Levon Ter-Petrosyan said at a rally on March 1.

According to him, “two years ago Armenian leadership planned and carried out cold-blooded execution of peaceful demonstrators, as it was the only way of retaining the power after the electoral fraud,” Ter-Petrosyan stated adding that vote rigging is not discredited, as otherwise thousands would not participate in anti-governmental actions.

First Armenian President is confident that tragic watershed of March 1 events can be closed only in case of finding and punishment of those guilty of people’s death – employees of prosecutor’s office and courts, participating in unlawful decisions on oppositionists' pursuing.

“Published secret decree of Armenian Defense minister as of February 23 completely proved that the matter is about the coup d’etat, staged by Robert Kocharyan and Serzh Sargsyan. The day when the mentioned document is used by international community to make impeachable legitimacy of Serzh Sargsyan more vulnerable will come,” Ter-Petrosyan declared.
