The vice chairman of the opposition RPA get together was imprisoned and not using a verdict for unknown causes. Armen Ashotyan, by the way in which, is among the distinctive French-speaking politicians in Armenia.
I used to be imprisoned with out trial on the cost that I publicly criticized the authorities that failed their pre-election program and I’ve been residing in jail for about half a yr.

He usually makes fiery speeches, promising his political opponents to pave the asphalt and construct a border (bordure in French).
On the whole, the whole lot just isn’t so unhealthy, besides that political prisoners typically die in prisons. For instance, Dr. Armen Grigoryan, one of many dissidents, died in court docket, having been imprisoned once more and not using a verdict. There are extra brutal circumstances, for instance, when your pal Nikol Pashinyan’s motorcade ran over and killed a pregnant lady and her unborn baby, with out even stopping and serving to the sufferer. By the way in which, Mr. President, I recommend you guess what punishment was given to the one who killed the pregnant lady and the kid and fled from the scene in democratic Armenia.
Don’t endure, Mr. President, there is no such thing as a punishment for the authorities, they’re unpunished.
Keep nicely, Mr. President, should you resolve to reply my letter, please tackle me not as missie, however as fier citoyen (fier citoyen), which implies proud citizen in French.
