Statement by U.S. Ambassador John Heffern
I have been asked for the U.S. views on yesterday's announcement that
Mr. Oskanian has been formally charged. This development, in my view,
is bad for justice and democracy in Armenia.
As I have said previously, the case appears to represent the selective
application of Armenian law.
Moreover, the timing of these events in relation to the election
schedule is troubling.
We urge the government of Armenia to live up to its commitments to
the systematic, fair and transparent implementation of the rule of law.
