A1+ journalist denied access to press conference on March 1 tragedy
A journalist of A1+ TV Company has not been allowed to participate in a press conference held at the office of Artur Baghdsaryan. She was told that the event was only open to several media outlets. According to Aravot.am, Artur Baghdsaryan am, Arthur Baghdasaryan had invited journalists to say that his Country of Law Party (OEK) had no connection with the March 2008 tragedy that left ten people killed in the Armenian capital. “Who gathered those people at [Liberty] Square? And who gave the order to open fire at them? Both answers are known. The OEK had no connection to the bloody events. We did not have such levers. We have nothing to do with the bloodshed and plunder in the country. They blame us for forming a coalition government with Serzh Sargsyan. We agreed because we wanted changes. But when we did not have any changes we withdraw from the coalition,” said Mr Baghdasaryan.
