ARMENIAN HUMAN RIGHTS ACTIVIST ADDRESSES LETTER TO ALL MPS, GETS NO ANSWER
20:38 18.09.13
Head of the Helsinki Citizens Assembly Vanadzor office Artur Sakunts
addressed a letter to all the Armenian MPs, inquiring about their being
proponents or opponents of Armenia's accession to the Customs Union.
However, none of the 131 MPs has answered his letter.
"I know that the MPs have received my letter, with the same questions
for all of them. Some of them called me and told they had received
my letter. But I have not so far received a written answer from any
of them," Sakunts told Tert.am.
As to the answers MPs representing different political forces may
give, Sakunts said: "I cannot imagine until I see their answers. I
addressed individual letters to each of the MPs and each of them is
supposed to answer."
He attaches importance to each MP's opinion. "As representatives
of the Legislature making political decisions they are supposed to
answer me as a taxpayer, citizen, human rights activist. Each MP's
answer is important for me."
According to the law, the MPs are supposed to answer within one month,
Sakunts said.
