Cavusoglu talked about March 1
Relatives of victims of the events of March 1 were at the Council of Europe Office in Armenia.
"The PACE is not following up on any of the 4 adopted resolutions, Cavusoglu is thanking Serzh Sargsyan for development of democracy in Armenia when the circumstances and culprits of the 10 murders remain unrevealed. We would like to ask why he is expressing gratitude," Alla Khachatryan, mother of Tigran Khachatryan, told "A1+" before the meeting.
The relatives of the victims of March 1 had asked for a meeting with the PACE President today in order to tell the truth before his meeting with the head of the NA Standing Committee on State-Legal Issues. "We don't trust David Harutyunyan. That is why we want to present our issues. We want Cavusoglu to understand that we are not fools and feel offended."
The relatives of officer Hamlet Tadevosyan who died on March 1 were not participating in the meeting. Today was Hamlet's birthday and they visited his tomb.
Cavusoglu arrived 15 minutes late to the meeting, while the meeting with the relatives was held behind closed doors and lasted 15 minutes.
"We are unsatisfied," said father of Armen Farmanyan.
The relatives of the victims informed the PACE President that the whole truth is not presented in Armenia. "The authorities are not telling you the truth. They are making promises, tricking you and saying that there is democracy and people are living well. It is a lie. There is no democracy or a judicial system in Armenia," said Sargis Kloyan, father of Gor Kloyan.
He presented the fact that the victims were shot with the "Cheryomukha 7" device and asked: "I asked them if it was possible to reveal who gave them the command."
Cavusoglu informed the relatives that he had raised the issue related to March 1 during his meeting with Serzh Sargsyan. He had talked about the victims, the political prisoners and had underscored Nikol Pashinyan's name. Cavusoglu has also promised that the co-reporters on Armenia will definitely meet with the victims' relatives during their visit to Yerevan.
The relatives also expressed their views on the Armenian Delegation to the PACE and underscored the pivotal role of Zaruhi Postanjyan and how Armen Rustamyan is not doing anything. "He said he knew who Armen Rustamyan is," said the relatives.
"I believe that our meeting will be of certain significance because, in my opinion, Cavusoglu was concerned," said Alla Hovhannisyan, mother of Tigran Khachatryan who was a victim of the events of March 1.
