The march commencing in Republic Square, the main venue for a nearly month-long protest of opponents of the current Armenian-Turkish thaw, was initiated by several political parties, including the main government critics on Turkey, the Armenian Revolutionary Federation (Dashnaktsutyun) and the Heritage party of ex-foreign minister Raffi Hovannisian.
