WHY KARABAKH NEEDS ALTERNATIVE TELEVISION
Lragir, Armenia
July 16 2007
The Public Services Regulatory Commission of Karabakh was set up.
According to the law, the commission should have been set up earlier,
but for whatever reason the commission was set up as the term of
office of the acting president was coming to its end, that is on the
eve of the election. What was the reason?
Ostensibly, the delay of application of the law is due to one of the
functions of the commission - providing TV frequencies. Perhaps nobody
wants another TV channel in Karabakh in the pre-election period which
would be an alternative to the Public Television.
Although, nobody is likely to set up a TV company. Apparently only
Suren Mirzoyan, director of Artsakhkap, had such an intention. But
for whatever reason, he was arrested before the operation of the
digital system. We have learned that he is still behind the bars,
no investigation and trial. In fact, why on earth Karabakh needs an
alternative television?
