ArmInfo. After a long discussion on June 12, the City Hall of Yerevan
refused to sanction the June 20 rally of Levon Ter-Petrosyan's
supporters at Liberty Square.
As Arman Musinyan, the press-secretary of the first president of
Armenia Levon Ter-Petrosyan, told ArmInfo correspondent, the City Hall
said that it is going to hold activities at Liberty Square the same
day. "Unlike us, the present authorities of Armenia are not guided
by political categories. The only thing they are guided by is the
position of brute force, which is incompatible with the elementary
principles of a democratic state", Musinyan said.
Asked about the reason why the authorities did not make compromises
even on the threshold of discussion of the situation in Armenia over
the PACE summer session, press-secretary of the opposition leader
replied 'the point is, the regime is frightened of the many-thousand
strong rally of the pan-national movement'. Arman Musinyan also added
that tomorrow Pan-National Movement Centre will send the new warning
to the Yerevan mayor's office about holding of the all-republican
meeting of the opposition supporters.
To add, Armenian first president's supporters declared many times
about their intention to hold a rally on 20 June at Liberty Square
despite its being sanctioned by the mayor's office or not.
