"Unambiguously USSR was a dictatorship and the political prisoners made
a part of it. Only 70 members of 'Union of National Self-Determination'
were political prisoners during the Soviet years", Paruyr Hayrikyan,
Chairman of UNSD announced at a press conference.
October 30 is the Day of Political Prisoners of USSR. According to
Hayrikyan, in the 1970's to come out of the international isolation
the leaders of Soviet Union announced they accepted Helsinki Agreement
of Europe Security and Cooperation underlining protection of human
rights. Agreement demanded that there would be no political prisoners
in a country.
But Hayrikyan says the Soviet leaders kept announcing to the world
that those arrested are criminals and not political prisoners and
supplementing the army of political prisoners.
Mr. Hayrikyan thinks there aren't political prisoners in Armenia but
the number of spies causes concern. "Imagine a state where the majority
of Parliament members make spies and the rest are the people depending
on them. Since the owners of the spies know that their 'activity' -
establishment of the spy network is illegal, they try to lay their
hands on everything possible in a lawful way", he stated.
