Today all the parties serving on the Justice faction with the exception of
Republic party held a sitting, the agenda of which contained one item only -
to issue a statement on the draft constitutional amendments. The statement
adopted by the faction is presented below.
STATEMENT
Armenia is not a democratic and rule of law country. Falsified elections,
union of authorities with criminal elements, shadow economy and corruption,
extreme social polarization, human defenselessness, restrictions of
expression, media and assemblies are conditioned by that.
Decrease of our country's international reputation, isolation from regional
projects and imitation of Euro-integration are continuing.
Constitutional reforms have crucial role in overcoming these dangerous
tendencies and paving a way of development. On 19 January, 2005 we publicly
stated our three fundamental approaches on separation and balance of powers,
judicial system independent from executive and real local self-government.
In case of their adoption we are ready to cooperation in the whole process
of constitutional reforms.
The Draft Constitutional Amendments presented by NGO "Democracy" is drafted
according to our approaches and is mainly supported by the "Justice" and
"National Unity" factions.
The Draft Constitutional Amendments adopted by the National Assembly in the
first reading on 11 May, 2005 rejects necessary reforms for the country's
democratization and is directed to the preservation of authoritarian system
in the country.
The "Justice" and "National Unity" factions state:
1.In case the submitted Draft is put to Referendum, we'll call of saying
"No" to that Draft.
2.Real democratic Constitutional Reforms have no alternative and will be
realized after legal authorities are established
