/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "I don’t agree to public assessments as to PACE
resolution’s being the country’s defeat or victory. As a matter of
fact, this and all other PACE resolutions supplement one another,
and we welcome such kind of objective assessments," Republican MP
David Harutyunyan, Head of Armenian delegation in PACE, told a news
conference. The Resolution, according to him, reflects Armenia’s
progress with regard to a number of problems indicated in pervious
documents.

The speaker also said that PACE intends to follow the situation
with individuals arrested after March 1 developments and not granted
amnesty. Besides, the report contains a recommendation on not arresting
individuals under search in case they voluntarily present themselves
to law enforcement agencies.

Armenia is currently under PACE’s regular monitoring, Harutyunyan
said. "PACE will not discuss Armenia’s issue during its fall session,
unless the country experiences unexpected changes," he noted.
