Protesters: A group of people in parliament could proclaim Serzh  Sargsyan as emperor, but he is not the leader of Armenia

ArmInfo.Today in Armenia a group of people gathered in a certain building and elected Serzh Sargsyan as Prime Minister of the country. With the same success, they could elect him king or emperor. On April 17, at a large rally organized by the opposition movement "Take a step, refuse Serzh," said Ararat Mirzoyan, a member of the National Assembly of the Republic of Armenia from the faction "Elk".

According to him, there is no Prime Minister Serzh Sargsyan in  Armenia, there is no power of the Republican Party, there is the  power of the people who gathered in the Republic Square. According to  the oppositionist, measures will continue to paralyze state  structures. "We will prove that the power in Armenia belongs to the  people, and the victory is irreversible," Ararat Mirzoyan said,  adding that the authorities had to release all detainees. The deputy  stressed that the new movement is rapidly spreading throughout the  country. And this movement should become peaceful. "It is necessary  to isolate those who will go on provocations, and the principle of  peaceful struggle should become prevailing," Ararat Mirzoyan said.   At the same time, the activist of the movement David Petrosyan noted  that the protesting people can take responsibility and go to the end.  For this, the people and the nation must be consolidated.

Sasun Mikaelyan, a Karabakh war veteran, noted that since 2008 such  large-scale rallies have never been held in Armenia. "This is an  indicator of victory, we did not win the war to live in our own  country as a hostage," he stressed. Mikayelyan urged those present  under the cover of the meeting of the police and National Security  Service to join the national struggle. "Today Serzh Sargsyan is a  legitimate prime minister for only 77 people," the MP said, noting  that the dictators have always waited, and the sad fate will await.  The participants of the rally noted that in Armenia a group of people  had seized power, which ignored the people's just indignation about  their situation. If the authorities do not listen to the opinion of  the people, then the people have all the rights and grounds for  shifting this power at any moment. The activists also "informed the  international community that Serzh Sargsyan does not represent  Armenia, and his decisions are illegal." It should be noted that  today Serzh Sargsyan was elected Prime Minister of the Republic of  Armenia. On the same day, RA President Armen Sarkissian signed a  decree on appointing Serzh Sargsyan the head of government. Also on  April 17 the leader of the movement, MP Nikol Pashinyan stated that  the launch of a non-violent, velvet revolution is being announced in  Armenia. According to the oppositionist, the spirit of the revolution  is in the air. However, for the accomplishment of the revolution,  Pashinyan believes, it is necessary to carry out a "network fight" -  to block the normal work of state institutions, including by holding  sit-ins in state buildings. Participants in the protest action "Take  a step, refuse Serzh" further blocked the entrance to the building of  the State Revenue Committee, the moves to the building of the  Armenian Foreign Ministry, the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of  Education and a number of other institutions.
