    IF DRAFT TO CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS HAS NO MATERIAL REFORMS,
    REFERENDUM IS CONDEMNED TO FAILURE: GURGEN ARSENIAN

    YEREVAN, JUNE 3, NOYAN TAPAN. At June 2 meeting with the CE Venice
    Commission's experts, Gurgen Arsenian, the NA "United Labour
    Party" Chairman, and Grigor Ghonjeyan, a party member presented the
    party's position concerning the process and future steps of carrying
    out the obligations taken in front of the PACE by Armenia. Gurgen
    arsenian informed the Noyan tapan coresspondent about this after the
    meeting. According to him, as the representatives of the political
    force responsible for the fulfillment of the obligations taken in
    front of the PACE by Armenia, they informed the experts that if
    the draft to constitutional amendments has no material reforms the
    referendum will be condemned to failure. "It does not mean that the
    people of Armenia does not want to become a full and equal member
    of the European family or is against the European values' system,
    just the people of Armenia will not welcome the amendments which it
    does not consider a reformation," the faction's members informed the
    Venice Commission. G..Arsenian is sure that if the coalition was ready
    for reforms and acception of proposals made by the faction, it would
    vote for the "United Labour Party" faction's draft appreciated by
    the Venice Commission. Whilemean, the coalition did not participate
    in the vote of the above-mentioned draft. "United Labour Party" voted
    against the coalition's draft as "it is agaist building such a country,
    having such a governing system." The faction does not want that a
    negative attitude is displayed towards Armenia in the conclusions
    as he does not believe that "the Armenian people has peculiarities
    of the mentality." "We are very normal people and want to live in a
    normal democartic country," Arsenian mentioned. According to him, the
    rulling coalition has no political will of fulfilling real reforms,
    otherwise, it could do that during the previous 11 months, and not
    only satisfied with giving promises. "There is no confidence among
    the political coalition that if a real democracy is established in
    the country, they can come to power with the people's assistance,"
    Gurgen Arsenian emphasized. The Venice Commission also met with
    Arshak Sadoyan, a NA Deputy, the author of another refused draft to
    the constitutional amendments. The latter also presented the experts
    his considerations concerning the constitutional reforms' process. The
    MP is going to present details at the June 3 press-conference.
