YEREVAN, DECEMBER 15, NOYAN TAPAN. The application on providing
the government sitting hall to the Armenian National Congress for
holding a conference submitted to the government on December 3
received no answer as of December 15. Noyan Tapan correspondent was
informed about it by ANC Coordinator Levon Zurabian. He said that ANC
members consider government's silence as a refusal. In his words, as
all Armenia's hotels and organizations have received an order "from
above" never to provide a hall to opposition forces, ANC discusses
alternative ways of a place to hold a conference. L. Zurabian did
not exclude that the conference will be again postponed due to the
obstacles regarding the conference place. It should be mentioned that
at first it was planned to hold the event on December 12, but then
it was postponed until December 19.
L. Zurabian did not render it more clear what issues will be
on conference agenda. He only said that representatives of the
Zharangutiun (Heritage) party will be among the invitees. The
oppositionist also added that if the conference is held on December
19, ANC activists will find some possibility to simultaneously take
part in the first court sitting on the "case of the seven" to be held
the same day.
