Statement by the Armenian National Congress:
"As expected, the revelation and prevention of the regime's latest
bandit plans against political prisoner, editor-in-chief of "Armenian
Times" newspaper and representative of the Armenian National Congress's
central office Nikol Pashinyan have raised public concern in Armenian
civil society and the presses.
Not being able to silence the political prisoner, that is, preventing
the publication of his public speeches in the presses, the government
had developed a despicable plan for revenge over him and had used
a ghastly method of cooperating with the criminal world. This is
not the first case of the government's way of taking revenge over
political prisoners. It catches the eye with its cynicism and shows
that the regime is feeble. The intervention and the society's active
influence made it possible to prevent the malicious and cowardly plan
against Nikol Pashinyan. However, this doesn't mean that Pashinyan
and the other political prisoners are safe from becoming the targets
for similar plans and intrigues.
Taking into account that the issues related to all political prisoners
are instructed by Serzh Sargsyan himself or are agreed with him,
the Armenian National Congress announces: Serzh Sargsyan will be
held responsible for any assault against Nikol Pashinyan and other
political prisoners. The Congress calls on legal defense organizations,
media outlets and the entire society to keep them and their problems
in the center of their attention."
