Levon Ter-Petrosian office rejected the proposal to be involved in
the Public Council to be formed on the initiative of President Serge
Sargsian, according to "Azatutyun" radio-station.

Levon Zurabian said to "Azatutyun" that the issue of involvement
in the mentioned council may become a subject of discussion only in
case of satisfaction of their demands – to release all the political
prisoners, to annul the changes in the Law of Mass Meetings and to
start an independent investigation into March 1 incidents.

"Our position is clear – the country is in political crisis and
in order to overcome that political crisis a dialogue is needed
between the authorities and the opposition during which we will find
compromised resolutions to come out of this political crisis", he said.
