Why does Armenia need a vote in PACE if the authorities use it not
for recognition of Karabakh independence, but only for justification
of their own anti-popular actions inside the country?
Levon Zurabian, a representative of the National Movement, asked such
a rhetorical question at the July 3 press conference.
According to him, the Armenian delegation in PACE used its whole
potential only for retaining the power in their own country. Making
many proposals and achieving rather serious changes in draft Resolution
N 1620, the delegation, according to the speaker, did not strain any
effort during the discussion of the resolution regarding Azerbaijan,
therefore formulations absolutely inadmissible for the Armenian people
appeared in the resolution. He said that the loss of the vote "will be
a very serious slap in the face of the Armenian authorities," which
isolating them on the international arena, will make them undertake
serious changes to restore democracy in the country.
Touching upon the rally planned to be held on July 4 near Matenadaran,
L.
Zurabian stated that if the policemen try to hinder its holding,
they will carry out illegal actions. He said that though Mayor's
Office has not responded to their application, according to the law On
Holding Meetings, Gatherings, Marches, and Demonstrations that came
in force from July 26, unless a decision is made within 72 hours,
the organizers have a right to hold the rally within the framework
of the submitted application.
