Leader of the New Armenia movement Andreas Ghukasyan told a news conference today that he will not be granted amnesty, as the amnesty extends only over the Sasna Tsrer group members and their accomplices.

According to Ghukasyan, in the past years there was a criminal law enforcement system. Many people have been sentenced to imprisonment on illegal charges.

Former MP Azat Arshakyan mentioned that the government was obliged to grant amnesty to all convicts who had been judged unfairly by the previous authorities.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
