The Mother Armenia movement has decided to run in the Yerevan Council of Elders elections. Andranik Tevanyan, the coordinator of this movement, announced this in a video message.
"I am near the statue of Mother Armenia, which is a very symbolic place for the residents of Yerevan and the entire Armenian people. [Armenian PM] Nikol Pashinyan's illegitimate policy, which is a threat to Armenia and Artsakh [(Nagorno-Karabakh)], is unacceptable to us. We do not accept Artsakh as part of Azerbaijan, and we want to prevent the abdication of Armenia. I am convinced that we have the chance to build a safe and strong country. The Mother Armenia movement has decided to run in the Yerevan Council of Elders elections, which we consider as an opportunity for a complete change of power and to get the country out of this situation," Tevanyan noted.
