NA adopted amnesty
With 91 for, 10 against and 1 neutral, the NA today accepted Serzh Sargsyan's proposal for amnesty.
Before putting the amnesty proposal up for a vote, Justice Minister Hrair Tovmasyan deemed it necessary to clarify the commentaries in the presses.
"Is that amnesty connected to the case of March 1 or was it due to the demands of certain international organizations? Each person is free to make predictions and has the right to draw conclusions. But I must say that we have more serious issues," said Hrair Tovmasyan.
According to him, the essence of amnesty is to analyze the history of the Third Republic and develop a clear-cut plan called "organized social order". "The amnesty is one of the parts of that plan. I am pleased that some people will be released through that amnesty. That will help us forget the sad realities of the past, but we should not be rest assured that everything is over."
Hrair Tovmasyan says the society faces an issue today. "Whether it is a real, political dialogue or debate, when eliminating each other is stops being a goal for certain political forces and the differing views don't create hostility between the sides, we will have a society in which the forces will be centralized to solve issues of national concern."
Hrair Tovmasyan called on accepting Serzh Sargsyan proposal for amnesty in this context.
