DISPUTES OVER CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS
Today only 17 deputies were present in the sitting hall during the
discussions of the constitutional amendments, which proceeded in the
atmosphere of complete indifference.
Constitutional right specialist, chairman of Democracy public organization
Vardan Poghosyan made a detailed analysis of all the three drafts pointing
out to their advantages and shortcomings and called the deputies to adopt
the draft submitted by the United Labor Party. In his turn independent
deputy Manuk Gasparyan agreed with Vardan Poghosyan, since, in his opinion,
the coalition's draft provides too much authority to the President.
Arshak Sadoyan was the only deputy representing the opposition in parliament
today. He said that in case the coalition's draft is adopted as a basis, the
opposition will have to vote against constitutional amendments.
The NA sitting will be continued tomorrow at about 12.00.
