The political year 2008 recorded no progress, the only positive
process is that really a free citizen was formed in Armenia, who is
ready to fight for his rights. Armen Martirosian, the Chairman of the
Zharangutiun (Heritage) parliamentary faction, stated at the December
25 press conference.
He said that those guilty for the March 1 events have not been
disclosed so far. "The March 1 events have always been in the focus
of Zharangutiun party's attention. We will pursue disclosure of all
committed crimes," A. Martirosian said.
In response to the question of whether Zharangutiun is going to join
the Armenian National Congress A. Martirosian said that Zharangutiun
always cooperates with ANC in issues regarding establishment of
democracy in Armenia and first of all releasing all political
prisoners. However today Zharangutiun is not discussing yet the
possibility of joining ANC.
Touching upon the fulfillment of PACE Resolutions N 1609 and 1620, A.
Martirosian said that no progress has been recorded in that issue
so far. According to him, unless the Armenian authorities fulfill
the requirements of PACE Resolutions, Armenia will not only be
deprived of the vote and right to present its interests in PACE, but
also economic sanctions will be used towards the country, therefore
Armenia will be deprived of the assistance of international financial
institutions. "And that will be a strong blow to Armenia's regional
positions, and country's authorities should exert efforts to fulfull
PACE requirements as soon as possible."
