The establishment of the rights of the opposition in accordance with the European standards should be accompanies by an increase of the political responsibility of all the actors,” runs the statement. The authors of the statement think that freedom of speech should be accompanied with rules of professional ethic and legal obligations, and the right to hold rallies and meetings in accordance with the law and with guarantees of security of the citizens and the state. The political coalition made an appeal for dialogue and cooperation to all the political forces to solve the problems mentioned in the statement. In this connection, the coalition welcomed the decision of the president of Armenia to set up a working group to work out solutions of the problems set down in the PACE resolution.

The statement of the coalition was signed by all the four parties of the coalition.
