Residents of the "zone of alienation" today staged a protest action
near the government building. They had a letter for the Prime Minister
which they handed to a government representative.
Meanwhile, Gagik Beglaryan was swearing in as Mayor of Yerevan at
the residence of the Yerevan City Council.
The protesters were going to continue their action near the City
Council.
As usual, policemen made the peaceful protesters disperse which
finally made them furious.
"We want to remind the RoA Government that they failed to keep
their promise and didn't give a final answer to our question. As a
result, more than 68 people were unable to participate in the mayoral
election," said Vachagan Hakobyan, Chairman of the "Protection of
the Right to Property."
Residents are eager to know the answer to their letter even if it is
negative. The answer will be attached to the other documents to be
sent to the Council of Europe.
The protesters don't instill hopes in the newly-appointed mayor.
"Gagik Beglaryan gives numerous promises but he is not going keep
them. He is a member of the Commission," said Mr. Hakobyan.
During the election campaign Beglaryan blamed the ex district head
Ararat Zurabyan for the process of alienation. We told him that he
replaced Ararat Zurabyan in the mid-2003 and the process of alienation
started in 2004. Beglaryan promised to address all issues after being
elected. We don't believe him as he says "the one who has eaten should
pay!" added Mr. Hakobyan.
