Nalbandian Shuts Out the Press

My colleague Khatchig Mouradian, the editor of the Armenian Weekly, reported on May 6 that requests to interview Foreign Minister Eduard Nalbandian while he was in Washington were denied.

This is most troubling, especially at a time when the flow of information from official Yerevan is so little that we are forced to decipher propaganda-laced news reports from Turkey and Azerbaijan to make sense of this so-called “road map” for the normalization of ties between Turkey and Armenia.
