April 2 will mark 8 years since the shutdown of "A1+" TV.
Surveys have shown that television viewers still remember and long
for their beloved channel.
No matter how much they see the absence of "A1+" among the variety
of television channels, they doubt that the "A1+" TV will ever be on
air again.
"They won't allow it because "A1+" tells the truth-something which,
according to them, the people don't need," said Mrs. Varduhi. Gagik
is sure that if "A1+" was allowed to be back on air, it would have
been back by now. "Something is standing in the way."
"If "A1+" was on air, would they be able to implement "March 1"
and kill 10 people? They were free and weren't afraid of their acts
because there was no television channel that would show all that,"
said one survey participant, Heghine.
Another participant, Armen, says this time the RA government will meet
the demands of international organizations. "I think the government
will allow "A1+" to be back on air. Before it was different. Times
have changed and it is time for "A1+" to be back on air," said Armen.
Let us remind that in early March, the CE Council of Ministers took
note of the RA Government's information that a tender will be held
in Armenia in July and "A1+" may have the opportunity to participate
in the tender.
Among surveyees were citizens who mentioned that they have felt
the need for "A1+" throughout the past eight years and have been
following-up on the flow of news provided by "A1+".
