/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenian authorities expected PACE to demonstrate
a passive attitude towards the situation in the country. Opposition
found the Assembly obliged to resolve all the problems pertaining to
the public sector, Eurointegration NGO’s chair Karen Bekaryan told
a news conference in Yerevan.

"Resolution 1677 clearly showed that Armenia currently has real
potentials for initiating a discussion over the realization of
resolution recommendations. The issue is whether the radical opposition
will agree to start a political dialogue with the authorities,"
the expert stressed. "By running for Yerevan Council elections, the
opposition could have introduced its positions on different issues. It
might have cured society," he added.

The expert also expressed his disapproval of RA delegation member
Zaruhi Postanjyan’s conduct. "We must realize that Armenia is a full
member of an organization in which various countries, including
Azerbaijan and Turkey, are represented," he stressed, adding that
the Armenian delegation should act as a united organ and establish
constructive cooperation.
