H. Kharatyan: Putin's statement means Permyakov to be tried in Russia
Russian President Vladimir Putin's statement to the effect that Valery
Permyakov will suffer punishment prescribed by law means that he will
stand trial in Russia, ethnographer Hranush Hakobyan told reporters
today during a discussion of the tragic Gyumri incident and the
subsequent protests.
In her opinion, the presence of the Russian 102nd military base in
Gyumri and the criminal's nationality are objective facts, and
naturally the issue was politicized.
Another participant in the discussion, painter Zaruhi Muradyan noted
that the protests in Gyumri helped the Armenian authorities save face
as their reaction in that situation was inadequate.
The chairwoman of For Sustainable Human Development NGO, ecologist
Karine Danielyan said for her part the policy of the Armenian
authorities, their reluctance to declare national days of mourning
caused a backlash and people's indignation.
