YEREVAN. – Vendetta is an incompatible vocabulary toward a government which has become such by way of a revolution of love, solidarity, noted Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan, at his press conference on Tuesday.

The PM stated the above-said when asked by a reporter about his views with respect to the statements by the legal defense team of second President Robert Kocharyan, and to the effect that a vendetta was taking place against Kocharyan—who is a defendant in the criminal case into the tragic events that occurred in capital city Yerevan, in March 2008.

And when asked whether another criminal case will be launched to finding those who killed the ten victims in this tragedy—and since the current criminal case refers solely to breaching the constitutional order, Pashinyan responded that there was no need to file a new criminal case because the criminal case had already been launched.

“The case of solving the murders [during that tragedy] is a key important case,” the PM added, in particular. “And there can be no doubt that everything will be done in terms of solving the March 1[, 2008] case.”

On March 1 and 2, 2008 the then authorities of Armenia used force against the opposition members who were rallying in downtown Yerevan, and against the results of the presidential election on February 19, 2008. Eight demonstrators as well as two servicemen of the internal troops were killed in the clashes. But no one had been brought to account for these deaths, to this day.
