Politics

“Violence and election fraud have become dangerously commonplace in our country and all illegalities are being committed amid growing informational blockade”, said participants of For and Against Civil Will forum held by 40 organizations on Tuesday in Yerevan.

Karen Hakobyan, a member of Hope organization, is convinced the time came, when each citizen must feel himself guilty for the situation created.

Chair of Armenian Helsinki Association Avetik Ishkhanyan says the community let the authorities ruin the whole nation.

Today, the forum came up with a statement saying human rights violation derailed democratization process in Armenia and illegalities committed by the authorities created the atmosphere of impunity in the republic.

In their statement, the forum participants demanded to release all political prisoners, to prosecute all those officials, who violated constitutional law, provide right for receiving information to citizens and to return broadcasting license to A1+ TV Company.
