On May 28, 1988, National Hero of the Republic of Armenia Movses Gorgisyan addressed the people during a rally held in Freedom Square with the following words:
“People, I will show you one thing, don’t be afraid.” He raised the Yeraguyn (Armenian: եռագույն, Tricolor) – the national flag of Armenia.
It was one of the most important steps for the restoration of our statehood when the flag of Armenia was for the first time raised in the occupied country.
