Sanctions of international organizations is not the best way for
supporting democracy development in Armenia, press-secretary of
Republican Party of Armenia [RPA], deputy of National Assembly Edward
Sharmazanov said at today's press-conference in Hayeli club when
commenting on the decision of PACE Monitoring Commission regarding
fulfilment of 1609 and 1620 PACE resolutions by Armenia, reported
ArmInfo.
He also added nobody from the present authorities came forward with
threats to European structures, on the contrary, the authorities have
always emphasized their gratitude for support and said their course
is towards European integration. 'European parliamentarians could
not but see the huge volume of the work implemented by the country
for fulfilment of the requirements of resolutions 1609 and 1620. Of
course, we still have problems regarding human rights protection
and we are going to resolve them. But I think it is unreasonable to
declare amnesty before passing sentence upon the persons accused of
an attempt of the anti-constitutional coup. It may create dangerous
precedent', - he said.
He also said "it is impossible to avoid dual standards application"
in the politics, and at present it is
taking place in Armenia. But RPA press-secretary thinks that the
prospect of depriving Armenia of the voting right in PACE is still
not so clear.
