A procession under the slogan "Down with Sects!" and "Beware of 'Jehovah's Witnesses'!" was held by the United Nation party Sunday.

"We came here to say 'no' to the US puppet sects destroying our national values and leading our nation to spiritual and consequently physical slavery," says the leader of the party Gor Tamazyan. In fighting sects the party quite successfully applies their own tactics - propagating against them and exposing their unhuman essence. Nevertheless the number of sects and their supporters has grown in the last year. Tamazyan does not consider a sect the Armenian pagans - but not because there are advocates of this religion among Armenia's top officials but because paganism is national and is part of Armenia's past.

Tamazyan is optimistic as Speaker of Armenian Parliament Artur Bagdassaryan has promised him to legislatively protect Armenian Apostolic Church.

To remind, earlier Armenia's Prime Minister Andranik Margaryan said that the Government was going to toughen the rather liberal law on religious. "We have laid it too thick with democracy and now have to remedy the situation," Margaryan said. There are almost 30 sects in Armenia the biggest being Jehovah's Witnesses - 18,000-30,000 people.
