SERIOUS CONTROL OVER NGOS AND MASS MEDIA GETTING MONEY FROM ABROAD ESTABLISHED
16:30 / 23.03.2015
Months ago the Armenian Noah's Ark Russia-based magazine conducted
an interview with the Russian ambassador to Armenia Ivan Volynkin
who said that Russia must more actively state about its presence in
Armenia's information field.
"It is necessary to neutralize the NGOs acting in Armenia and trying
to harm Armenian-Russian relations in other way. For instance in
Russia a law has been adopted which clearly regulates the activity of
the NGO. It is obvious that those who direct their activity against
Russian-Armenian friendship do not want anything good to Russia and
Armenia," he said.
This interview raised a big noise in Armenia with a number of NGOs
conducting different actions.
According to Nyut.am sources corresponding services have started
carrying out serious control of the NGOs and mass media getting money
from abroad, like for instance SOROS Foundation getting money from
the West.
Supposedly, it was a 'request' of the Russian authorities. There is
also an opposite tendency as well with the West asking to be careful
with Griboyedov Club etc. Soon noisy developments just like the one
which happened with Vardan Oskanian. In short, soon we will hear
about the money laundering cases.
