The Armenian Human Rights Defender, Armen Harutunyan, sent a letter
to the Speaker of National Assembly Hovik Abrahamyan in connection
to the adoption of amendments and supplements to the Law on Mass Media.

The letter notes that the bill caused a wave of criticism. Both
the prepositions of the draft law and the legality of legal acts
regulating the relations are disputed. The Ombudsman considers that
the bill has conceptual drawbacks and is inadmissible.
