The events of March 1, 2008, which resulted in innocent victims, are a pain for all of us, President Armen Sarkissian says.
“The political struggle must not go beyond the bounds of legitimacy, it must not lead to shocks, instability, contradictions must not turn into an atmosphere of intolerance, mutual hatred, moreover, confrontation and division,” President Sarkissian said in a message.
He once again called on everyone to show tolerance and solidarity.
“We need unity and solidarity,” the President said.
“Especially today, unity and tolerance are vital for our state and people,” he added.
