“Mesrop Mashtots stands behind all of us, and being an old civilized nation, today we have youth, educated, honest, brave, who have organized this support march. They support Ruben Vardanyan and all our prisoners.
” I think that at this fateful point, in which we are, there is a feeling that we have a back, the characteristic of a civilized person to stand back to back, stand shoulder to shoulder, to support each other,” the former Minister of State of Artsakh, Ruben Vardanyan’s sister, Marine Ales told the journalists.
On the initiative of Ruben Vardanyan’s friends, a march was started near Matenadaran on September 30 with the slogan “Ruben, we are with you.” Marine Ales added: “May God be with us, with our nation, and may God give Armenians strength, wisdom, and courage to live honestly.
Thanks to the Armenian community, which is next to me. The feeling we need for everyone on the road who is in a prison cell and standing here is that we are not alone. Ruben’s and mine’s father used to say that it is beneficial, to be honest, but to live honestly, you have to be very strong, so we all have to be very strong.
