"The decisions of the European Court of Human Rights should not be
considered as victories or defeats as every decision is aimed to help
and direct the State, officials and public representatives to make the
local legislations in line with the European standards," said Gevorg
Kostanyan, the Deputy Minister of Justice and the representative of
the RA Government in the European Court of Human Rights, in a press
conference, today.
In particular the deputy minister finds it inaccurate the announcements
of "Meltex" company about their victory. Remind that yesterday;
on June 17 the European Court of Human Rights upheld the case of
"Meltex" company vs. Republic of Armenia. The RA Commissioner in the
European Court of Human Rights said that the Republic of Armenia has
more gained in this case than it is defeated.
2 of 3 are declined
"We can state that RA is not defeated as they have appealed 3
demands and 2 of them are declined. The court upheld only 1 point
and registered a violation," said the Deputy Minister. According
to the appeal, the company notified that its freedom of speech and
independence and independent investigation are violated.
According to the European Court the right of independent investigation
of "Meltex" company is not violated and no restrictions are
conducted. According to the Court the right of freedom of expression is
violated as the National Committee of TV and Radio did not clarified
the subpoints of the decline. In this regard, the Deputy Minister
said that the decision will help the committee to be more accurate
in providing the basis of declines.
London gets its part
Mesrop Harutyunyan and "Meltex" company expected to get 1mln 500
thousands dollars for compensation from the RA. But in the result of
the RA Government negotiations the company will get EUR 30 thousands.
The company applied to the court to get financial, moral and advocate
expenses compensations, by the way, the company mentioned two types
of advocate service compensation - internal and international.
The European Court declined to affirm internal compensation and made a
decision that only international advocate service expenses should be
compensated. Note that the company's international advocate service
provider is "KJRP" company which presents the interests of Azeri
citizens in the court.
The Deputy Minister of Justice said that "Meltex" company has right
to take part in the tenders of getting broadcasting frequency.
