Noyan Tapan
Mar 05 2007
YEREVAN, MARCH 5, NOYAN TAPAN. The "Aylentrank" (Alternative)
public-political initiative worked out its own programs of organization
of the public life, which is impossible to implement while officiating
of the present authorities. Ashot Sargsian, a founder member of
the initiative stated about it during the March 2 rally of the
"Aylentrank." In his words, it is impossible today in Armenia to reach
serious changes with the help of elections, and it is meaningless to
demand resignation from President Robert Kocharian. Consequently,
one must go in the way of impeachment and "get free of the illegal
administration in that way." "Aylentrank" member Aramazd Ghalamkarian
stated that a number of opposing figures, particularly, Artashes
Geghamian, Stepan Demirchian, Artur Baghdasarian, Raffi Hovannisian,
Vazgen Manukian, displayed indifference attitude towards the idea
of impeachment and "did nothing for that program of power shift was
carried out." Vahagn Khachatrian, another member of "Aylentrank,"
former Mayor of Yerevan stated that the application addressed to the
Public Television and Radio Company Council, by which the initiative
demanded to give broadcast, remained without response. "We did not
ask for charity from the Public Television, we demand to respect
our rights," he mentioned, V.Khachatrian stated that during the
recent days "Aylentrank" addressed to all the television companies,
asking to broadcast their statement awaring about the rally, but no
one meet that request half-way, being afraid of having problems with
the authorities. He mentioned that the right of freedom of expression
is violated in Armenia, and added that they will demand from the
authorities to re-open A1+ and Noyan Tapan TV channels.
