The Head of the Heritage faction, Armen Martirosyan, on May 27,
extended hope that the information on the possible amnesty by the
president will come true on May 28. Armen Martirosyan stated that
according to the information he has, even in his first message on
October 2, which was made at the National Assembly, Serge Sargsyan
had intentions to declare an amnesty, which did not take place for
some reasons.
Armen Martirosyan also stated that there are problems with the foreign
policy connected with the PACE June session, where the resolution on
the political prisoners is going to be circulated. All this creates
grounds for Armen Martirosyan to suppose that the amnesty is necessary.
"Even a simple political calculation will show that it will be every
good if an amnesty is declared within these two days. The political
prisoners will not be set free until the Yerevan Mayor election for
them not to be a resource for the opposition. But an amnesty is logic
in this situation", stated Armen Martirosyan.
