YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 24, NOYAN TAPAN. The Armenian National Congress
(ANC) announced in advance and applied to Yerevan mayor's office with
notification of holding a meeting and a march on September 26. The
mayor's office rejected this application based on an unfounded and
false motivation. This time the leitmotif of the meeting will be the
election of head of Yerevan's Kentron community on September 28. For
that reason the ANC's candidate for Kentron community head Ararat
Zurabian also applied to the mayor's office with the request to hold
a meeting-rally with voters within the framework of his pre-election
campaign. However, according to a statement of the ANC, the mayor's
office rejected this application, this time violating the Electoral
Code as well.
"We consider such refusals as unacceptable because they violate the
Armenian citizens' constitutional rights and their rights enshrined
in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. We will exercise our
rights and hold a meeting on September 26," is said in the statement
of the ANC.
