20 minutes before the end of the NA session the floor was given to
RA Ombudsman Larissa Alaverdyan. She represented his first annual
report about the state of human rights in Armenia. The Ombudsman
started her report with a letter which she signed three days ago. A
resident of the Tavoush region complained of not having a house and
of bad social conditions. Larissa Alaverdyan quoted this letter as
proof that mainly the socially insecure layer applies to the Ombudsman.
The Ombudsman did not represent numbers as the statistics had
been distributed to the delegates several days ago. According to
Larissa Alaverdyan, «as a rule, they are very careful while making a
decision about violation of human rights». In contrast to her words,
the corresponding bodies, according to her, «answer rudely to the
warnings».
Unable to say everything in the time allotted, Larissa Alaverdyan
used the supplementary 5 minutes to remind the Parliamentarians that
up to now in Armenia there are no laws on establishing punishments
for denouncing the 1915 Genocide, as well as defining the status
of the Armenians killed in Sumgayit, Baku and other Azerbaijani
cities. The delegates will ask Larissa Alaverdyan questions in the
tomorrow's session.
