YEREVAN, JUNE 10, NOYAN TAPAN. The dissolution of the fact-finding
committee of experts on study of the 2008 March 1-2 events will have a
deep negative impact on Armenia's political-public processes. Larisa
Alaverdian, the Secretary of the RA National Assembly Zharangutiun
(Heritage) faction, expressed such an opinion at the June 10 press
conference. In her words, the main reason of fact-finding committee's
establishment was that society did not trust the law enforcement
bodies, and a new, public structure was needed for disclosing the
March 1-2 events.
"If Serzh Sargsyan had proper will to create the fact-finding
committee, he should have waited for the end of committee's work,"
L. Alaverdian said. In her words, the current authorities stopped
committee's activity not to disclose former authorities' acts. "The
current authorities just do not want to harm the former ones," the
deputy said.
L. Alaverdian confirmed Zharangutiun's decision to present committee's
negative facts to the public in case fact-finding committee's activity
is stopped. She added that those facts should become public ownership
without fail, as the people has the right to learn them.
Speaking about Zharangutiun faction member Zaruhi Postanjian's
estimation on Armenian National Congress that "ANC is not a
fully-fledged force," L. Alaverdian stated that it was criticism
done for the purpose of strengthening the opposition sphere.
