    M. Bojolyan: "It is time to make radical changes"

    "I do not think that people who put me in prison have more right
    to live Armenia than I do," Murad Bojolyan, the only political
    prisoner remaining in jail after the parliament-declared amnesty, said
    on Friday upon his release from Yerevan - Kentron penitentiary.

    Bojolyan was welcomed by his friends, relatives, ordinary citizens and
    journalists who were waiting for him outside the penitentiary
    institution. The Turkologist says he is still undecided about his
    future plans.

    "I have been deprived of all chances to be involved in politics in
    Armenia," he said.

    Further, Bojolyan added that he backs the Armenian National Congress
    which struggles for a happy and democratic country.

    Speaking about the long-awaited dialogue between the authorities and
    the opposition, he said that it is still vague.

    "The dialogue resembles a football game. The authorities should
    realize that the situation cannot last for a long time. It is time to
    make radical changes in the country," he said.

    Bojolyan was convicted of espionage, and was sentenced to ten years'
    imprisonment. He was arrested in 2002 and charged with passing
    "military, economic and political information" to Turkish
    intelligence.
