ArmInfo. The leader of Armenian Progressive Party Tigran Urikhanyan
told ArmInfo correspondent he is indignant because of mediation of US
Embassy in the incident with human rights protector, head of Helsinki
Association Mikael Danielyan.
He also added that more than a dozen of public organizations have
already sent petitions to US Embassy in Armenia with a demand to stop
any mediation of its employees. Urikhanyan categorically disproved
all the accusations and event a hint that first he attacked Danielyan
and that the incident was connected with the activity of the latter
as human rights protector. He also said that attraction of US Embassy
and other organizations may worsen the situation around the incident
and "maybe an attempt to use all this for PR or other political
goals’. Urikhanyan is afraid that US Embassy and other organizations
may affect investigation and ‘at any moment the investigation may
become partial as a result of the western influences’.
