ATTORNEY GENERAL IS UNABLE TO MAKE INDEPENDENT DECISIONS

The impression that Attorney General Aghvan Hovsepyan has an
important role in the political sphere of Armenia is false. Aghvan
Hovsepyan does not have an important role in the political sphere,
stated the leader of the Democratic Track Party Manuk Gasparyan
December 15 at the Pastark club.

The leader of the Democratic Track Party, who comes from the region
of Aparan like the attorney general, and is a member of Nig Aparan
Union of Compatriots with Aghvan Hovsepyan as the honorary chairman,
says his relation with the attorney general is friendly but he has to
note that the Attorney General is unable to make independent
decisions. `He can never make independent decisions,’ Manuk Gasparyan
says.

He emphasizes that Robert Kocharyan would not have named Aghvan
Hovsepyan if Hovsepyan had not worked with the Kocharyan-Sargsyan
tandem in Karabakh.
