Legislative reforms on activity of National Commission on TV and Radio
should be carried out in Armenia, Chairman of the Yerevan Press Club
Boris Navasardyan said during the discussion on Resolution 1620 passed
at PACE on June 26.
According to him, one should work out proposals on this issue as soon
as possible. "We demand that the members of the National Commission
on Television and Radio resign voluntarily, this way they will
contribute to the reforming process in this sphere. Certainly, this
is not an assessment of their work", Navasardyan stressed. Touching
upon implementation of the demands of PACE Resolution "On Functioning
of Democratic Institutions in Armenia", Navasardyan said: "Everybody
says that Armenia failed to implement the resolution completely,
why wasn't Armenia punished then?" He also pointed out that European
structures take complex decisions with respect to Armenia, taking
into consideration Armenia's neighbor Azerbaijan as well. Navasardyan
thinks that in January Europe's position on implementation of the
resolution's demands will depend on how the presidential election
in Azerbaijan will be held in October 2008. He added that to gain
specific results, both the opposition and the authorities should
intensively participate in carrying out the tasks set by Europe.
