During numerous campaigns, I received thanks from mothers for signing the November 9 document: Pashinyan

You all should know that we fought to the point where it made sense to fight; when we saw that continuing that struggle had no longer the justifications it should have, we stopped that process. This was stated by Nikol Pashinyan today during the pre-election campaign of the ‘Civil Contract’ party in the Berdavan community of the Tavush region.

“I bow before all our victims, but I also want to emphasize that during this time, during numerous campaigns, I received thanks from mothers for signing the November 9 document,” Pashinyan said.

He also emphasized that there will be no more velvet governance. “We now understand that the era of velvet governance has ended, and we tell the people: it's time to say no to velvet, and we need a certain clarification of our mandate. We want to ask the people to replace our velvet mandate with a steel mandate. I read on the posters, and yes, no to velvet, yes to ‘ghayish’,” Pashinyan noted.
