Armenia
Yerevan, 21 January: The opposition Armenian National Congress (ANC)
demands that the authorities "stop the short-sighted policy, release
political prisoners and carry on the dialogue with the opposition,"
the coordinator of the ANC, Levon Zurabyan, told a news conference
in Yerevan today, Mediamax reports.
Zurabyan said that all problems take root from the 2008 presidential
election fraud and the violent suppression of the 1-2 March 2008
peaceful protest. As a result, Armenia is still experiencing a deep
political crisis, the ANC coordinator said.
Zurabyan said that the authorities do not want to seek ways out of the
crisis and continue keeping 60 political prisoners in correctional
facilities, disregarding the demands of society and international
organizations.
The ANC coordinator expressed confidence that "the regime's unpromising
repressive policy will lead it to self-exhaustion".
