ArmInfo. ‘Hot opposing by the authorities of Armenia the idea of
independent international inquiry of the tragic incidents of 1 March
shows that they do not want the real circumstances to be revealed’,
Representative and the ex-press-secretary of the ex-president Levon
Ter-Petrosyan Levon Zurabyan said at the National Press Club, Friday.

He said such inquiry is one of the most important prerequisites for
normalizing the domestic political situation in the country. ‘When the
authorities of a country are not complicit in scandalous assassinations
or tragic events, they promote independent inquiries. Whereas in
Armenia the situation is quite different’, L. Zurabyan said.

Asked if the opposition conducts own inquiry of the incidents, he
called it too difficult in conditions of political persecutions,
and particularly, for limited resources and mass arrests. At the
same time, he said that the collected materials will be made public
in more free conditions.
