YEREVAN, APRIL 9, NOYAN TAPAN. According to Zharangutiun (Heritage) party's parliamentary faction head Armen Martirosian, the one year of Serzh Sargsyan's tenure was a lost year for Armenia. As he reported at the April 9 press conference, in one year it was possible to carry out real reforms, to disclose the 2008 March 1 tragic events, to find the murderers and those ordering to fire. "Unfortunately, within this one year we had political prisoners and fail to get free of that stigma up to the present," A. Martirosian said. Zharangutiun Spokesperson Hovsep Khurshudian said that by arresting some of the "political walk" participants in the evening of April 9 the Police once more discredited our state. In response to the question of whether a strained home political situation will be formed after the Yerevan Council of Elders elections H. Khurshudian said that no second "March 1" will happen: according to him, the authors of that tragedy will not digest such an action for the second time.
