Young activists of the Armenian National Congress today staged a
protest in front of the OSCE Yerevan Office in support of the Armenian
political prisoners. They demanded to publicize the OSCE/ODIHR report
on civil proceedings which was to be introduced to the Armenian
society by January 24.

But the report has been sent to Armenian authorities which aroused
discontent and suspicion among the youth.

"Serzh Sargsyan has promised outer forces so many things that they
close an eye to Armenia’s home situation. One can guess easily what
he has promised to them. Political prisoners are a good cards in the
hands of Serzh Sargsyan," said one of the protesters.

Deputy head of the OSCE Yerevan Office received the protesters
and promised to send their letter to the OSCE/ODIHR central office
in Warsaw.
