"We intend to constantly and everywhere voice this problem and urge all citizens concerned about the situation to join us," Ghukasyan said, noting that the relevant foreign centers would oppose these steps.
Ghukasyan called for political forces participating in parliamentary elections and preaching traditional, national values, to consolidate in order to promote this bill in parliament. He noted that in many countries similar laws are already in force - in Russia, in some Western countries, in some US states.
