As press speaker for the "Heritage" faction Hovsep Khurshudyan
informed, in yesterday's session of the Monitoring Committee of
the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, member of the
Armenian delegation to PACE, deputy of the "Heritage" faction Raffi
Hovhannisyan strictly criticized the completion of demands stated in
Resolution 1643 and the attitude of Europeans of not following-up on
the completion of requirements that they set.
During a telephone conversation Head of the Armenian delegation to
PACE David Harutyunyan told journalists that the Monitoring Committee
praised the legislative reforms that have taken place in Armenia and
attached importance to the process of law enforcement.
"The Committee also attached importance to law enforcement taking
into consideration that the law has not been executed yet. Although
it is in effect, law enforcement will be the focus of the Monitoring
Committee," said David Harutyunyan.
He also informed that in the days leading up to the April session of
the Assembly there will be certain outcome to register as a result of
reforms made in Articles 225 and 300 of the RA Criminal Code, which
will serve as a condition for the Monitoring Committee to touch upon
the issue of Armenia.
The Monitoring Committee also discussed the process of reforms
connected with electronic media in Armenia.
The Committee also discussed the issue concerning the "A1+" TV. With
regards to that, David Harutyunyan mentioned that certain legislative
reforms are still in progress. He underscored the proposals related to
formation of a regulatory body, but the bills on the violated right
of the "A1+" have nothing to do with it, especially the restoration
of rights of "A1+", which is also the basis of the verdict reached
by the European Court.
The upcoming elections for mayor and city council were also on the
agenda. According to David Harutyunyan, the PACE Monitoring Committee
praised the fact that there is political pluralism, taking into account
the candidates and the fact that the coalition political parties have
made the decision to participate in the elections with separate lists.
The issue of Armenia will be discussed once again at the end of April
during the plenary session of the PACE in Strasbourg.
