Shooting in the Armenian Parliament

The announcement of Levon Ter-Petrossyan,
the ex-president of the Republic of Armenia
28 October

Levon Ter-Petrossyan Sharing the fair indignation and the profound grief of our nation in connection with the tragic events, I would like to mention the necessity of establishing control over the current situation. I do not doubt that the government does everything to maintain public order and peace in the Republic. Nor do I doubt that all the strata of society, intellectuals, politicians and journalists are aware that it's too soon to explain and evaluate anything. The situation demands that the society and power structures should get united around the President of the republic and oppose the challenge to our statehood, demonstrating exceptional solidarity and dignity.
