By Robert Kocharyan’s decree Stepan Poghosyan and Henrik Hovhanissyan
were appointed members of the Council of the Armenian National Radio
and Television Company for a term of 6 years.
To note the above mentioned people are not newly-appointed, they just
preserved their seats for a second term.
The Yerevan Press Club, The Union of Journalists, Internews public
organization and the Committee for Freedom of Speech Protection made
a statement regarding the contest announced for Stepan Poghosyan and
Henrik Hovhanissyan’s seats.
The statement says in part, “We state that the RA law On Radio and
Television and the practice of its implementation, including the
given contest, do not correspond to Armenia’s obligation to the CE
on transformation of state broadcasting and international standards.”
