YEREVAN, MAY 30, NOYAN TAPAN. We have applied to RA presidential
candidate Levon Ter-Petrosian to involve him in the Public Council to
be created by the RA President, but we have been refused by his office.
Garnik Isagulian, the Adviser to the RA President, the Chairman of the
National Security party, said at the May 30 press conference.
According to him, Levon Zurabian, a member of the National Movement,
motivated that by saying that they do not take part in any issue until
the requirements of PACE Resolution N 1609 are fulfilled. "If you are
really ready to present resolutions of the Council of Europe or any
other instances as documents of obligatory fulfilment for Armenia, it
would be right that we put all UN resolutions simultaneously in the
basis of our dialogue," G. Isagulian said reminding journalists of
another resolution adopted by UN lately, a resolution on Nagorno
Karabakh problem.
In G. Isagulian's opinion, Resolution N 1609 is just speculated here.
Meanwhile, G. Isagulian considers that it would be very good if L.
Ter-Petrosian agreed to join the Public Council. "Even a question has
emerged, whether it is possible that L. Ter-Petrosian will be able to
lead the Public Council. I have said that there is no obstacle," G.
Isagulian said. According to him, they do their best to secure maximum
involvement of both political organizations and NGOs with opposition
position in the Council. "For us, it is very important that
participation of political organizations having opposition position be
the most active," the Adviser of the RA President said.
It was also mentioned that there was even an apprehension that the
Council will become a formal body, which will fulfil some people's
orders: to avoid it they propose to work out all mechanisms jointly, as
a result of which such phenomena will be excluded.
