“Media Advocate” calls for the settlement of every conflict within the limits of legality

According to media reports, on August 8, an incident occurred between former police chief Vladimir Gasparyan, and a journalist of RFE/RL’s Armenian station.

According to the publications, Vladimir Gasparyan, noticing that the journalist was shooting his house with a drone, threatened to run over him.

The professional work of a journalist should not be hindered, there are certain legal grounds by which a journalist may be imposed to remain within the limits of legality. The threat of physical revenge is impermissible.

The journalist who initiated the drone shooting of Vladimir Gasparyan’s house must understand that the inviolability of one’s individual private property must not be violated, one’s private space must not be invaded by a drone.

“Media Advocate” initiative urges the journalist to consider the rights of others while implementing his professional work, and urges the former state official not to hinder the journalist’s professional work, in his turn. We call for the settlement of every conflict within the limits of legality.
