So I feel a tiny bit better knowing that we have put some wheels into motion on this issue. You cannot imagine how it affects you to see with your own eyes this sort of oppression. In Armenia.

Armenia's Foreign Minister today "warned against superficial judgments on the internal political situation in Armenia". He has some nerve. Most of the beatings were carried out directly in front of the US Embassy. He claims he wants to see a US condemnation of opposition leadership calls for violence. If the leadership calls for violence, charge them for it in court. If protesters peacefully block a street, you peacefully arrest them. I consider the US statement quite mild, and want pressure the entire world, especially the Diaspora to be felt. I ESPECIALLY want to single out the Tashnags, who are members of the ruling coalition to make sure that their name is not dirtied, and that things are put right. The beatings should not go unpunished, it is a crime and should be treated as such. Those planning and executing it should be identified and locked up.
