The issues of ensuring plurality of opinions in mass media are mainly
connected with the local legislation, representative of the Council
of Europe’s Directorate General of Human Rights and Legal Affairs
Franziska Klopfer said.

Speaking at the international conference on "Plurality of opinions in
Armenian media," Franziska Klopfer noted that the lack of plurality
in Armenian broadcast media is mainly associated with the fact that
members of the National Television and Radio Commission are appointed
by the authorities.

Vice-Chair of the National Assembly’s Standing Committee on Science,
Education, Culture, Youth Affairs and Sport Naira Zohrabyan noted that
the expected legislative changes envisage a new procedure of forming
the National Television and Radio Commission on the competitive basis
to ensure the independence of the body.
