A1+
[03:14 pm] 19 April, 2006
Today the presentation of the journal “Experience of the European Court
of the Human Rights” took place in which the heads of the RA Courts,
judges, advocates and representatives of NGOs participated. According
to the organizers of the event, the representatives of the Armenian
court system confirm their wish to reform the system in Armenia by
getting acquainted with the practice of the European Court.
The surprising fact was that the representatives of the Justice
Ministry which is the respondent side in the European Court in
the cases from Armenia were not present at the presentation. “Does
it testify to the fact that the executive power does not have the
desire to reform the court system? ” Asked this question by the “A1+”
correspondent Ara Ghazaryan, editor of the journal tried to answer
diplomatically, saying that the representatives of the Ministry have
come in fact; they just did not make a speech and are not in the hall
at the moment, and it does not testify to anything.
The journal the print run of which is 300 examples, includes the
investigations of the European Court, the messages, the decisions
made each month and other information connected with the court. On
the whole, the Court has made five decisions about the applications
from Armenia. They will all be published in the journal.
It is noteworthy that the staff of the journal consists exclusively
of lawyers so that there are no mistakes in the published materials.
