responsibility and there can be no dialogue with them.

Armenia has become a serious partner for the

getting out of the situation.
He noted that the adopted limitations are not
desirable saying that all the political forces must be
involved in the regulation of the situation and the
state of emergency be suspended as soon as possible,
mass media get an opportunity for free activity, the
March 1 detainees be released. He said he is pleased
that Serzh Sargsian has displayed initiative of
cooperation with the opposition and noted the
necessity of expansion of cooperation.
The NA speaker said he respects the viewpoints of
the opposition but he does not think that burning cars
is means of expression of political position. Anyone
who has committed criminal crime must get his worthy
punishment.
