Political situation in Armenian discussed in Washington Carnegie fund
June 03, 2011 | 18:56
Discussion devoted to Armenia's political situation took place at
Washington Carnegie foundation on Wednesday.
Carnegie foundation expert on Caucasus, Tomas De Waal, stated there
were many discussions on external political issues and the Karabagh
conflict in the Caucasus. Discussion on the internal political
situation in Armenia takes place for the first time.
British Foreign Policy Center expert Adam Hag, manager on Eurasia at
National Democratic Institute in Washington Laura Jute, manager on
Armenia at American Bar Association Don Shack, US former ambassador to
Armenia John Evans participated in the discussion, reports
RadioLiberty.
Laura Jute spoke on recent events happened in Armenia. She was
interested in whether changes are real or they intend to lessen the
tense. She also commented on release of political prisoners and
acceptance of rallies in the places selected by opposition, as Armenia
runs a significant process in improving democracy.
`It is hard to assess March 1 influence on Armenia's justice and
peoples' acceptance of justice,' Don Shack stated. `Many cases that
shed light were accepted as political shows and not a fare trial. We
hope the last developments will initiate a change.'
According to John Evans, what happened in Armenia is evolution rather
than revolution.
