In memory of victims of 1 March bloodshed

1 year on... We have yet to hear from the Armenian authorities a simple "Sorry" and "My condolences" for all 10 people who died on 1 March 2008...

Below is info which I do not normally post on this blog, but considering above, and the stance of the Armenian church back then...

Funny, I don't remember them doing anything for the souls of the victims last year.
In fact, from what I remember, they were attending SS's inauguration while the people were mourning the loss of Armenian lives.

you are right, tsitsernak and that is what I remember. In fact, they also have some 'odaparik' show after. At the end, everything is a show...

Tert.am quotes presidential press service as saying that today Serj Sargsyan "put a candle in memory of victims of 1 March 08 events in the church of St. Sargis" in Yerevan. No personal statement though...
