Toros Sefilyan, the brother of the jailed leader of Founding Parliament opposition movement Jirayr Sefilyan, has addressed the Armenian people calling everyone to gather in the Liberty Square on August 13 to launch a nation-wide fight.

In his addressed received by ArmInfo, Toros Sefilyan says it is high time to rise up for a nation-wide fight to change power in the country. "We are being late already," he writes.

He is sure that rallies, marches and petitions are not able to change the power in the country. "This system must be destroyed. Otherwise, we will leave a system of dictatorship to our children," Sefilyan writes.

"Let us stop discussions, talks and even demands for release political prisoners. Let our guys have a rest in prison," Toros Sefilyan says and urges a nation-wide assembly in the Liberty Square on August 13. Sefilyan hopes to "peacefully and softly tell the people's demands to the authorities" if at least 50,000 people gather.

He is sure that such a large-scale peaceful assembly will caught the attention of the world community, which will support the people, and the authorities will have nothing to oppose to it. Expressing his apologies to the people for being in Beirut not in Armenia at such moment, Toros Sefilyan says the people have a week to decide whether to unite or not.

Further in his address, Toros Sefilyan announces the demands that will be made in the Liberty Square on August 13: "Resignation of the president; establishment of a transitional government, snap elections, formation of government enlisting the public support, adoption of a new Constitution, formation of a monitoring group that sets the national interests above personal ones to control the process of the establishment of the Armenian State."

"Everyone who impedes the process of peaceful power changes, makes violent revolution inevitable," Toros Sefilyan writes fro conclusion.
