YEREVAN, APRIL 9, NOYAN TAPAN. According to Zharangutiun (Heritage)
party’s parliamentary faction head Armen Martirosian, the one year of
Serzh Sargsyan’s tenure was a lost year for Armenia. As he reported
at the April 9 press conference, in one year it was possible to
carry out real reforms, to disclose the 2008 March 1 tragic events,
to find the murderers and those ordering to fire. "Unfortunately,
within this one year we had political prisoners and fail to get free
of that stigma up to the present," A. Martirosian said.

Zharangutiun Spokesperson Hovsep Khurshudian said that by arresting
some of the "political walk" participants in the evening of April 9
the Police once more discredited our state.

In response to the question of whether a strained home political
situation will be formed after the Yerevan Council of Elders elections
H. Khurshudian said that no second "March 1" will happen: according
to him, the authors of that tragedy will not digest such an action
for the second time.
