Thousands turned out under a cloudy Yerevan sky to hear what Raffi Hovannisian had to say about the future of the movement to remove Serzh Sargsyan from the Presidential Palace.

A representative from Armenia's student movement noted that students would no longer tolerate undemocratic practices in colleges and universities. She said that while the school boycott had ended, students would engage in other civic actions in the near future.

The next speaker was singer/songwriter Ruben Hakhverdyan who confessed that while he didn't know what the next steps were but that it was clear that Sargsyan had to go.

Speakers then referred to the letter sent to Serzh Sargsyan by Serj Tankian.
