Council of Europe Secretary General concerned over hostage crisis in Yerevan

YEREVAN, JULY 29, ARMENPRESS. Secretary General of the Council of Europe Thorbjørn Jagland has expressed concern over the events in Yerevan.

The statement of the Secretary General reads:

“I follow with concern the events taking place in our member state of Armenia, where for several days already, an armed group has taken hostages in a police station in Yerevan. I would like to recall that in states governed by the rule of law, all conflicts should be resolved through political dialogue with a respect for democratic norms and standards. I therefore call on all those concerned to put an end to this dangerous situation without delay, and to return to the use of democratic means. Democracy, human rights and the rule of law must prevail. The freedom of assembly must be fully respected.”
