16:03 / 12/04/2009An atmosphere of confrontation is reigning in
Armenia, Levon Zurabyan, the Coordinator of the Central Office,
Armenian National Congress (ANC), told a press conference on December
4.

According to him, a new situation is only possible after the political
prisoners are released. Commenting on a statement made by Eduard
Sharmazanov, Secretary of the Republican Party of Armenia (RPA), that
in his interview with the Komsomolskaya Pravda newspaper in 1992 the
then Armenian President Levon Ter-Petrosyan stated that
Nagorno-Karabakh should be granted autonomy in Azerbaijan., Zurabyan
said that only diplomatic documents are of importance for him.

`I could answer this question, but it would require revealing some
state secrets, which I am not going to do. I can say one thing for
sure: all the statements Levon Ter-Petrosyan made then were intended
as information and political support for the military operations. Do
you know about the term `information support for military operations’?
I cannot say more. By the way, those statements helped us gain
victory,’ Zurabyan said.
