YEREVAN, JUNE 30, NOYAN TAPAN. The member of the RA National Assembly
"Heritage" faction Zaruhi Postanjian considers her mission in the
summer session of the PACE as pro-Armenian and successful. Declaring
this at the June 29 press conference, Zaruhi who is also a member
of the Armenian delegation in the PACE said that there was nothing
extraordinary in the fact that she had allowed Azerbaijani and Turkish
delegates to put their signatures under her proposals.
To recap, Z. Postanjian prepared a document that proposes releasing
all the persons deprived of liberty for political motivations and
reorganizing the fact-finding group on inquiry into the March 1-2
events with the involvement of international experts. The documents
also proposes that the PACE co-rapporteurs on Armenia visit the
country and work out a report on the implementation of PACE resolutions
by Armenia.
In connection with the "black PR" conducted by some mass media outlets
of Armenia regarding her activities, she said that the reason is
that she had foiled the head of the Armenian delegation in the PACE,
representative of RPA David Harutyunian's efforts aimed at covering
up the March 1 events and "opening a new page".
The member of the NA "Heritage" faction Styepa Safarian in his
turn reminded that some representatives of the ruling political
coalition have voted for adoption of not pro-Armenian documents at
international structures. For example, during the sitting of the
PACE Monitoring Committee in Kiev on May 26-27, 2008, members of the
Armenian delegation in the PACE David Harutyunian (RPA) and Avet Adonts
(Prosperous Armenia party) voted for the decision which in partucular
read: "The sustainable democratic development will be extremely
difficult in Azerbaijan until the territorial integrity of the country
is restored". During the June 9-11, 2008 session of the Parliamentary
Assembly of the Black Sea Economic Cooperation Organization (BSEC)
held in Athens, the head of the Armenian delegation, RPA member Gagik
Minasian voted in favor of the recommendation, by which the Nagorno
Karabakh conflict is considered one of the extremist and separatist
conflicts.
It was mentioned at the press conference that the proposals presented
by Z. Postanjian in the PACE had been previously discussed at the
board of Heritage party and received its approval.
