Congress abstains from the discussion
Samvel Nikoyan, Chairman of the NA AD-Hoc Committee looking into the events of March 1-2, has asked the Armenian National Assembly to appoint a representative in the discussion of the recent report of the Fact-Finding Group.
The central office of the Congress announces,
"the information furnished on the issue has been submitted to the relevant body-Fact-Finding Group-to check its genuineness."
From the very beginning we didn't acknowledge the power of the parliamentary committee. Moreover, as the Congress possesses no additional information, it finds it inexpedient to have a representative in the committee which is to clarify the veracity of the submitted information.
The Armenian National Congress thinks an impartial assessment of the March 1 events supposes resumption of the Fact-Finding Group's activity.
