The Human Rights Defender of Armenia has received 794 complaints regarding the government’s measures for neutralization of the economic consequences of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) in Armenia.
The Office of the Human Rights Defender has received the complaints from people in person and in writing. In addition, the Office has also monitored mass media outlets.
The issues raised can be divided into the following two groups:
- technical issues
- issues that require solutions by law
Although the Human Rights Defender attaches importance to the anti-crisis measures, it records that it is important for those measures to be addressable. During a state of emergency, the state has a heavier burden in terms of lawfulness, and this further binds the state to provide all the solutions in conditions that will be as favorable for the people as possible.
