According to Aram Safaryan: "There are no political prisoners in
Armenia. Some people can call the detentions "on political grounds".
Yes the Council of Europe really demands to release certain detainees
and in my view very soon corresponding decisions will be made regarding
this issue.
But we must try to differentiate two things: those who committed crimes
on March 1-2 must be punished and they can use certain mechanisms of
amnesty towards the others."
