March 1 Commission Report Once Again to Appear in PACE Monitoring
Committee Agenda

Tert.am
13:35 – 16.01.10

Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) co-rapporteurs’
report on the National Assembly of Armenia Commission for the
Investigation of March 1 Events report will be discussed in the
upcoming PACE Monitoring Committee’s January 25 meeting.

As told to Tert.am by ad-hoc March 1 Commission chair Samvel Nikoyan,
he has not personally received an inviation to that meeting: `That
report no longer belongs to the committee, but to the public;
consequently, by no means is it mandatory for me to be present there.’

Asked whether it’s possible that this time there might be certain
toned down sections in the co-rapporteur’s harsh report, Nikoyan said
by no means does he consider the report harsh.

`Europe’s experts can express whatever perspective they so wish, and
that shouldn’t obligate us to frequently reflect upon their analyses,’
he said.
