/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenian President’s public statement on possible
amnesty was an unprecedented step, since he can exercise his
constitutional right of independent decision making, said Hovhannes
Hovhannisyan, deputy chairman of RA Public Council.
"The President’s announcement was a topic of hot debates in the
council and we decided to call on President Sargsyan to submit the
issue to consideration of the National Assembly," he said.
Hovhannisyan also informed that according to a sociological survey,
84% of respondents spoke out for amnesty. 16% did not support the idea.
