  • Armenian Parliamentary Speaker: When Reforming The Election Code,We

    ARMENIAN PARLIAMENTARY SPEAKER: WHEN REFORMING THE ELECTION CODE, WE MUST NOT
    BE GUIDED WITH A PRINCIPLE THAT "GUILLOTINE IS THE BEST REMEDY FOR DANDRUFF,"

    YEREVAN, DECEMBER 18. ARMINFO. When reforming the Election Code,
    we must not be guided with a principle that "guillotine is the best
    remedy for dandruff," says Armenian Parliamentary Speaker Artur
    Baghdasaryan in his interview with the Armenian Second TV channel
    "H2." A.Baghdasaryan is the Leader of the Orinats Yerkir party included
    in the ruling coalition.

    In his words, two project of distribution of the parliamentary seats
    exist at present: either 100% proportional system, or 60% and 40%
    in favor of the proportional system. Each political force expressing
    its opinion on this problem must be ready to a compromise. At present
    70%/30% version is considered, which will maintain the rights of
    single-mandate seats as well. It will allow political forces to
    develop. A consensus is reached and the draft reforms, including
    in them expansion of observers' rights, will be submitted to the
    Parliament in February, 2005, the speaker says.
