YEREVAN, MAY 29, NOYAN TAPAN. By speaking about his readiness to
grant an amnesty, Armenia's President Serzh Sargsyan just wished to
continue the show that is being held before European structures for
a long time. Human rights activist Mikayel Danielian, the Chairman
of the Helsinki Association, expressed such an opinion at the May 29
press conference. Touching upon S.
Sargsyan's words that political organizations and the Public Council
should tell him that there is a demand of amnesty in society,
M. Danielian said that the President should not say such a thing,
as it is a "conduct of a child."
"Who should apply to him: the Republican Party, the Bargavach
Hayastan or the Orinats Yerkir?," M. Danielian asked stressing
that those political forces will never speak about the necessity
of amnesty. Speaking about the Public Council, the human rights
activist reminded that Public Council Chairman Vazgen Manukian had
stated from the very start that he will not attend to the issue of
political prisoners.
