YEREVAN, DECEMBER 19, NOYAN TAPAN. Zharangutiun (Heritage) Party leader
Raffi Hovannisian's meeting with residents of Vanadzor scheduled for
December 16 at Vanadzor H.Abelian State Dramatic Theater failed. Noyan
Tapan was informed about it from the Party's Press Service. According
to the report, in spite of the agreement on renting the area reached
in advance and the agreement signed by the established order, the
theater leadership refused to provide them the territory on a number
of invented pretexts. In spite of this, many residents of Vanadzor
gathered in the square near the theater. Vardan Khachatrian, Chairman
of the Party's Board, answered their questions. The latter declared
that against the obstacles, "Raffi Hovannisian will realize his right
of RA citizen and both in Vanadzor and in any place of Armenia will
frankly and openly speak with the people." According to the report,
the authorities' affirmations that equal conditions and rights are
provided for all political figures in Armenia do not correspond to
reality. "Moreover, within the framework of the order from above,
all RA TV companies, both state and private, are closed before the
Zharangutiun's founder," the party's report read.
