According to A1plus, Mr Harutyunyan will be visiting the US on a State Department sponsored trip, and having meetings related to Human Rights. On April 9, he will be giving a lecture and subsequent discussion in Michigan, and apparently its going to be webcast live. So, for the first time, those of us who have only ever seen the small snippets of him from YouTube will get to see so much more.Not only that, but the Press Release (English, Armenian) mentions that viewers can send emails during the talk, of questions they want to ask the Ombudsman.
It's a little frustrating that it will be midnight or so Armenian time when the webcast will be live. But I don't see why questions can't be emailed in advance, and maybe they'll make the video available afterwards as well.
Wouldn't it be great if the webcast was shown Live on large screens around Yerevan, or shown on television, on April 9th? But I suppose if the freedom to do that existed in Armenia, the Ombudsman wouldn't be visiting the US to "have meetings" about Human Rights.
So many questions to be asked, especially as there seem to be increasing tensions between the Opposition and the Ombudsman. So many questions...
See the Press Releases above for more information.
The email to send questions to is: armenianstudies@umich.edu
The site for the Live Webcast is: http://umtv-live.rs.itd.umich.edu/asp/asp040909.asx

One comment (by "Hayaser") was deleted for language and insulting content.
I really don't understand what he is going to say. He did not say or do much when he was in Hayastan where rights for humanity were and still are being trodden upon.
What does he have to say at the University of Michigan? His actions said it all...

"YOU CANT HANDLE THE TRUTH"
Anonymous- I actually don't know if there has been a time up until now where the public could ask questions directly. If there was, I missed it, and am interested to see how he handles questions.
Hayaser - As I've mentioned numerous times before, you can disagree with me or anyone else all you want on this blog. But you must do so respectfully.
