ARMENIAN OPPOSITION SUGGESTS FORMING INDEPENDENT COMMISSION FOR
INVESTIGATING A-320 CRASH

Today’s hearings have been organized because the public seriously
doubts that the Inter-state Aviation Committee’s official version of
the A-320 crash is true, the leader of the New Times party Aram
Karapetyan said during today’s public hearings organized by the
opposition anti-criminal movement.

The delay in the investigation and the distrust in the IAC’s version
have given rise to plenty of versions which all have right to exist.

The leader of the Fatherland and Dignity Garnik Margaryan said that
one of the key versions is the lack of fuel. He said that Armavia
buys fuel in Russia and resells it in Armenia which results to
numerous machinations.

The MP from the National Unity party Agasi Arshakyan said that the
crash was the natural outcome of the post-Soviet official policy of
consistent destruction of civil aviation. Today nobody is insured
against new crashes as the basic principle of civil aviation tycoons
is to enrich themselves at any price.

The leader of the Democratic Party Aram Sargsyan suggested forming an
independent commission for investigating the crash. All participants
supported his initiative.
