Satik Seyranyan, President of the Union of Journalists, highlighted the importance of media impartiality and comprehensive media coverage during this pre-election period. She also expressed concern about the possible dangers of criminalizing hate speech. In fact, it may be used against freedom of speech.

The president of the Union of Journalists noted that they are closely following the campaign, it is still passive, the media still fails to ensure the participation of all sides, especially in the debate formats.

The Union of Journalists of Armenia and “Media Advocate” will be consistent so as the media coverage of the election campaign is conducted on the basis of impartiality.
