NA PRESIDENT: “FOREIGN ANNOUNCEMENTS DO NOT CORRESPOND...”
The other day the president of the National Assembly Tigran Torosyan received Thomas Hammarberg the chairman of Council of Europe on human rights. According to the NA official website, Boiana Urumova, the special representative of the CE chief secretary was also present at the meeting. Torosyan said that the visit of the human rights chairman is an ideal variant to check and verify the reality as many agencies present quite different things. The president of the NA mentioned that the measures were taken in line with the Constitution and Human Rights European convention. He added that the principles of the state of emergency are softened. As for the announcements made in those recent days, Torosyan called them as not appropriate or not correspondent, particularly when it is said that the arrested should be set free and the dialogue should be started with Levon Ter-Petrosyan. Thomas Hammaberg mentioned that he has already prepared and the Government was introduced to the report on the human rights. He agreed with the president of the NA that the international organization should be very attentive with giving evaluation not to strain the situation. He was content that the president of the RA softened the principles of the state of emergency concerning the media limits.
