RAFFI HOVANNISIAN MEETS GREEK PRIME MINISTER, PACE PRESIDENT

Athens—Raffi K. Hovannisian, the Heritage Party’s parliamentary leader and member of Armenia’s delegation to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE), met over the weekend with Greek Prime Minister Costas Karamanlis and privately exchanged views on matters of mutual concern.

Hovannisian was in Greece to take part in a policy conference, entitled “Anti-terrorist Measures and Human Rights,” organized by PACE’s Committee on Legal Affairs and Human Rights together with its Sub-Committee on Crime Problems and the Fight against Terrorism.

In the framework of the conference, Raffi Hovannisian conferred on the global challenges of security and civil liberties, unfolding regional developments, and deepening domestic crises with renowned human rights experts and MPs from several European nations. He discussed these issues separately with newly-elected PACE President Lluís Maria de Puig.

Accompanied by Aristotelis Pavlidis, Greece’s former minister of finance and current head of the Hellenic Republic’s delegation to PACE, Raffi Hovannisian attended a special session of the Greek Parliament. There he met, for the second time in the past couple of years, with his long-time colleague Prime Minister Costas Karamanlis.
