PanARMENIAN.Net - Armenian Ombudsman Institute is facing serious
threats, with the authorities reluctant to address the citizens'
complaints, according to the first Ombudsman of Armenia.
At news conference in Yerevan, Larisa Alaverdyan noted the legal
system the most threatened in Armenia's human rights field.
Commenting on the activity of current Ombudsman Karen Andreasyan, Ms.
Alaverdyan gave positive assessment to resumption of hotline service,
as well as the offer to open human rights protection offices in
Armenia's regions.
In conclusion, Ms. Alaverdyan assessed the situation with human
rights protection in Armenia as 3 on a 5-point scale. "However,
there's a major difference between the 3,5 point legislation and its
practical use which can be assessed at 2.10 points on the average,
" she remarked.
Nevertheless, the first Ombudsman is rather optimistic about the
development of the sector. "We'll continue working to improve the
human rights situation in Armenia," she stressed.
