19:28 – 05.07.13

Armenia’s Human Rights Defender (Ombudsman) intends to send a protest
note to international human rights organizations.

Ombudsman’s Spokesperson Naira Karmirshalyan informed Tert.am that the
Ombudsman plans to raise the issue of the scandal in Armenia’s
National Assembly as a result of the Moldovan Ombudsman’s statement.

`This is punishable behavior, which runs counter to the philosophy of
human rights institutes,’ Karmirshalyan said.

At the pan-European Conference on The European Legal Standards of Rule
of Law and the Scope of Discretion of Powers in the Member-States of
the Council of Europe in Armenia’s Parliament, Aurelia Grigoriu
delivered a report on Human Rights Protection in Frozen Conflicts
Zones. She particularly stated that Armenia had occupied 20% of
Azerbaijan’s territory and committed Azerbaijani genocide. She also
called Armenia `an aggressor.’
