    YEREVAN, JULY 31, NOYAN TAPAN. According to People's Movement
    representative Karapet Rubinian, the cause of not stopping rally
    struggle even in this hot summer is the existence of political
    prisoners in the country. As he stated at a meeting organized on
    July 30 at the National Press Club, he is bewildered that lately the
    authorities release few political prisoners, at that, with a signature
    on not leaving the country, while PACE demands that Armenia set free
    all prisoners persecuted for their political views.

    K. Rubinian touched upon President Serzh Sargsyan's statement that
    he cannot with one call instruct to set free those arrested on the
    March 1 case, as it will mean that he can also order to arrest them
    with one call. However, according to K. Rubinian, the very thing
    is interesting that hundreds of people were arrested and have been
    kept in prisons for already five months with one call or one order,
    according to the "black list" of first President's supporters. He
    reminded to those present that the radical opposition has given time
    to Serzh Sargsyan until August 1 to release all arrested political
    figures. "Several hours still remain, S. Sargsyan can state that for
    the sake of country's well-being, calmness, he has made a political
    decision to release all of them. And we in that case will astonished
    go to the rally and say to the people that we are ready to conduct
    a dialogue with them," PM representative said.

    K. Rubinian affirmed that the authorities do not agree to hold special
    elections, as they are afraid to lose the power and therefore, the
    possibility of robbing and accumulating huge wealth in case of fair
    and transparent elections. In his words, the opposition, "against the
    will of the authorities should achieve holding of special elections."
