"Ter-Petrosian will make new and serious accents"
The amnestied political prisoners will meet with their supporters near the Matenadaran at 7:30, July 2.
"They have missed each other. The spiritual connection between the public and the political prisoners cannot be disbonded. It will be further reinforced during tomorrow's rally," says Levon Zurabian, a senior representative of the opposition Armenian National Congress (HAK).
The meeting will be a kind of a ceremony for the released political prisoners. At the same time the Congress will not forget about the 18 jailed political prisoners who haven't been amnestied.
"Tomorrow's meeting will show public intention to release the other political prisoners," he added.
Asked on which criteria the political prisoners were freed, Levon Zurabian said: "Unfortunately, the authorities and the Council of Europe conducted a political bargain and freed part of the jailed prisoners. Under the CoE pressure, the authorities released as many political prisoners as was needed for Armenia to avoid sanctions."
With regard to PACE Resolution 1677, the HAK Coordinator said the Resolution clearly says that the page of March 1 is not turned over.
Though the authorities have not sanctioned tomorrow's march the opposition is going to exercise its constitutional right and march through capital streets.
"Levon Ter-Petrossian will make an interesting speech making new and serious accents," concluded Levon Zurabian.
