    ARMENIAN OMBUDSMAN REMINDS YEREVAN MAYOR OF HIS PROMISES

    July 23, 2013 | 17:36

    YEREVAN. - Armenian Ombudsman Karen Andreasyan has addressed the
    municipality in connection with the rise in transport fares.

    The human rights defender said his office had applied to the
    municipality with a request to provide legal and economic justification
    of the decision.

    "We are trying to be unbiased and professional as much as possible in
    our assessments," he said during the Tuesday press conference. "For
    me it is strange that only 3-4 months ago Yerevan mayor promised that
    there will be no price hike. I'm curious about the studies which will
    be provided to my office by the municipality. What has changed in 4
    months to change the expectations of the mayor?"

    Karen Andreasyan expressed his admiration for those who are carrying
    citizens on their vehicles free of charge. The participation of
    intellectuals is an indicative of developing civil society, he added.
