STATEMENT ON THE ILLEGALITY OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY
By the decision of the Presidium of the Armenian Red Cross Society public organization (hereinafter -ARCS) dated 02/08/2024 No. 141/2, the ARCS Presidium, by a reasoned decision, rejected the application submitted by an unknown initiative group "to convene an extraordinary congress", which was not appealed by any person in accordance with the procedure established by the legislation of the Republic of Armenia.
Moreover, the organization of the collection of signatures for the extraordinary congress was carried out with violations, there was not the necessary number of signatures to satisfy the application for an extraordinary congress, and there are reasonable suspicions that criminally prosecuted acts were committed, in connection with which relevant reports were submitted and checks are being carried out in the organization.
At the same time, the ARCS Presidency convened the Annual Assembly on 04/08/2024 in order to fulfill the duties defined by the charter, in connection with which preparatory activities are being carried out.
Nevertheless, on 02/15/2024, without a corresponding decision of the Presidium, with gross violations of the norms enshrined in the charter, moreover, with the admission of criminally punishable acts, some impostors hold a meeting called the extraordinary congress of the NGO ARCS.
In connection with the above, the ARCS Presidium condemns the illegal actions of self-proclaimed individuals and
ANNOUNCES
