The Armenian Nationalist Party disagrees with aggressive statements by
Armenian Aryan Union leader Armen Avetisyan against ethnic minorities
and Masons, considers his arrest illegal and demands his immediate
release.
At the same time, the party considers that “this arrest is, to a
certain degree, of a planned and publicity nature for the Aryan Fist
organization. “There is no need for creating new `heroes’,” the
party’s statement said.
“People should not be arrested in a free and democratic country for
this or that position,” the statement by the Armenian Nationalist
Party said.
