Armenia’s opposition has claimed that the authorities have taken no step over the past month for returning Armenia to the democratic path as demanded by Europe, saying that this failure makes their continued struggle warranted.

Levon Zurabyan, a senior representative of the Popular Movement led by first president Levon Ter-Petrosyan, reiterated on Wednesday the plans of the opposition to go ahead with the rally scheduled for August 1 despite a ban by Yerevan’s municipality. Read more

President Serzh Sargsyan has downplayed the “sensational nature” of recent Turkish media reports about “secret negotiations” between diplomatic channels of Armenia and Turkey, saying that despite the absence of diplomatic ties contacts between the two neighboring states “have never stopped.”

“Our officials have always been in contact. I see no sensation in the fact that diplomats of our two countries had negotiations in Geneva,” Sargsyan said during a press conference in Yerevan on Monday. Read more

Armenia’s opposition has again signaled its readiness to defy the ban on its planned rally and press ahead with the protest action slated for August 1.

Commander of the Shushi battalion Zhirayr Sefilyan walked free from the Vardashen prison Monday having served out an 18-month jail term for illegally possessing a weapon.

The 41-year-old retired lieutenant-colonel and coordinator of the public initiative “In Defense of Liberated Territories” was jailed in late 2006 under part 1 of Article 235 of Armenia’s Criminal Code (illegal arms possession). But originally he had also been charged with making public calls for a forcible overthrow of government. Read more

While Armenia’s authorities continue to insist that they have the political will to fulfill demands set out by the Council of Europe, the opposition plans to put those intentions to the test.

It has called a public rally on Liberty Square for June 20, just days before the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) considers whether Armenia has met the conditions set out in Resolution 1609.

“Taking into account the cynical disrespect of the authorities to the demands of Resolution 1609, as well as the expiration of the term for their fulfillment stated in the resolution, the Popular Movement has decided to hold an all-republican public rally in Liberty Square on June 20 that will summarize the process of the fulfillment of the above-mentioned requirements and discuss what the people is to do in restoring basic democratic freedoms,” a statement by the Popular Movement said.
