YEREVAN, AUGUST 2, NOYAN TAPAN. The programs of the Armenian service
of the Radio Liberty will be broadcasted on the frequencies of
the intercontinental "Ar Radio" since August 15. According to the
message of the Board of Directors of the American Broadcasts, the
contract signed a few days ago will be in force until September 14,
2008. It is also mentioned that the "Ar Radio" has 23 transmitters,
which cover Yerevan and a number of remote regions.
It should be mentioned that the management of the Armenian Public
Radio announced in the middle of July that the broadcast of the
Radio Liberty by the 80 transmitters of its network will be stopped
since August 9. The programs of the Armenian service of the Radio
Liberty have been broadcast through the network of the Armenian Public
Radio since 1998. The negotiations concerning the prolonging of the
contract, which lasted for three days in July in Yerevan, were not
crowned with success.
"We are pleased with the fact that numerous Armenian listeners will
henceforth as well have an opportunity to listen to our programs
by the intercontinental "Ar Radio", Jeffrey Gedmin, the President
of the Radio Liberty/Radio Free Europe, said. At the same time he
expressed conviction that the programs of the Radio Liberty should be
available throughout Armenia. "Hundred thousands of listeners trust
in the Armenian service of the Radio Liberty and expect exact and
comprehensive information from us," Jeffrey Gedmin mentioned.
