Taking as a basis the “Reporters Sans Frontiиres” humanitarian organization official website report per June 25 (http://www.rsf.org/Confessions-arrests-and-a-campaign.html),
we would like to express our deepest concerns regarding the recent events in post-election Iran.
The arrests and detainments of Iranian mass media and cyber-space bloggers have launched on June 14; they are still being continued.

By acting apart from mass media companies which we are currently working for and by not politicizing our statement we are hereby taking the floor to express our protest against any action aimed at the oppression of Freedom of Speech; we are also calling for securing the Right to Freedom of Speech and other Fundamental Human Freedoms.

We, the Undersigned Armenian journalists and photographers are deeply worried about the fate of dozens of our colleagues and comrades in Iran.
We wish strength and patience to the families of arrested journalists, bloggers and photographers, who have no information about their relatives’ state. We hope for our colleagues to be freed at earliest possible convenience and to be able to continue their activity freely and objectively.

We are also concerned about hundreds of detained intellectuals and civilians in Iran.
