Heritage: Ter-Petrossian must be held responsible for people death on March 1, 2008

PanARMENIAN.Net - Armenian National Congress (ANC) leader, the fist Armenian President Levon Ter-Petrossian must be held politically responsible for the death of 10 people in tragic events of March 1, 2008, the leader of Heritage opposition party’s parliamentary group stated on his Facebook page.

As Stepan Safaryan stressed in his post, Ter-Petrossian should have foreseen the development of the events at Myasnikyan Square, by either being present in person or dismissing the rally to prevent the tragedy.

According to Safaryan, in the morning of March 1, 2008 he informed Ter-Petrossian about the gathering of people at Myasnikyan Square, to which the ex-president replied, “it’s not my people.”

Safaryan said he realizes the extent of a stir to be raised by his post, yet is ready to resist it.
