The trilateral meeting between A1+, Noyan Napan, the National Committee on Television and Radio and the CE took place after 33 years as A1+ was deprived of air. At first A1+ Director Mesrop Movsesyan refused to participate in the meeting as it was to be held in the office of Chairman of the Council of the Public TV and Radio Company Alexan Harutyunyan. The role of Alexan Harutyunyan in the closing of A1+ is clear to everyone in Armenia and his presence at the meeting with the PACE Monitoring Committee rapporteurs was inadmissible.

However the CE representative were really interested in the situation with the information field in Armenia and the meeting was held without Harutyunyan. “I think the purpose of the meeting was the correct perception of the process of depriving A1+ of air. The examples of A1+ and Noyan Tapan were enough for the PACE Monitoring Committee rapporteurs to comprehend the condition of mass media in Armenia”, Mesrop Movsesyan said. “I asked two questions only: why Amalyan has not produced the rejection to A1+ in 8 contests and how does the skilled staff of A1+ with 6 years of experience yield to a company, which wishes to work with the A1+ staff », he noted. In response Amalyan said that he did not want to mar the spirits of the A1+ staff. His answer is another proof that the depriving A1+ of air was planned beforehand.

The CE representatives remained unsatisfied with the Amalyan's answers. Georges Colombier said, in part, «Your answers are not convincing. The situation with the mass media can lead to serious problems when fulfilling commitments to the CE.

To note, the lawyers representing A1+ in the European Court, who arrived in Armenia to familiarize themselves with the situation in detail, were also present at the meeting.
