YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 13, NOYAN TAPAN. Yerevan Mayor’s Office has
not properly notified the Armenian National Congress (ANC) on not
endowing the holding of the March 1 rally in the territory near
Matenadaran or in Northern Avenue, therefore ANC is not going to make
any change connected with the holding of the event. Arman Musinian,
the Spokesperson of ANC leader Levon Ter-Petrosian, stated at the
February 13 press conference.
A. Musinian stated that the three-month interval announced in the rally
fight gave its results in the respect of both not hindering the Nagorno
Karabakh settlement and doing organization work in ANC. The radical
opposition is going to resume the fight from March 1, but by what
scenario it will proceed – time will show. According to A. Musinian,
several variants were discussed, including holding of rallies.
Touching upon RA President Serzh Sargsyan’s speech at the 45 Munich
Security Conference, A. Musinian said that his speeches cannot be a
guarantee that tomorrow the country head will not sign a document on
Nagorno Karabakh settlement not favorable for Armenia.
According to A. Musinian, the Armenian authorities do not undertake
adequate measures to resist the economic crisis, and revolts of
social nature are not excluded in Armenia. In his words, this factor
to some extent will assist Congress activity, which is ready to assist
in any way citizens fighting for their social rights.
In A. Musinian’s affirmation, R. Kocharian has always had rather
a great influence in the political sphere. After the presidential
elections and March 1 events the contradictions within the power
become deeper and deeper.
As its proof A. Musinian pointed to the murder of the Deputy Head of
Police considered to be President’s intimate.
