Human rights defenders in Armenia do not feel protected; they can be
subjected to violence at any time, says Mikael Danielyan, Chairman
of Armenian Helsinki Association.
The number of encroachments upon human rights defenders has not
shown a decline over the past years. There has been no progress in
this regard," Mr Danielyan said after a consultation focusing on the
situation of human rights defenders in Armenia.
"The reason is the atmosphere created by the authorities," said the
human rights defender. "To come out of the situation we should unseat
the authorities. Unless we have a liberal and democratic government
we cannot talk about these issues."
With regard to the upcoming presidential vote, Mikael Danielyan said,
"It is nothing but a show. You can but a ticket, sit in the front
rows and follow the farce. It will be interesting," he said.
