"Armenia has cheated the COE", this was the opinion of the Vardan
Poghosyan, representative of the Democratic Reforms Monitoring
Group. According to him, in the coalition draft constitution which
has been observed by the Monitoring Group and will be adopted in the
NA by first hearing, nothing is mentioned about the independence of
the Human Rights Defender Institute.
"The Government is still dependent on the RA President, and NA has
no role here. Excluding the NA dissolution Institute the country can
face a crash", concludes Constitution expert Vardan Pogosyan. Another
shortcoming of the coalition draft is that there is no reference to
the election of the Yerevan mayor. And according to the calculation
of Vardan Pogosyan this draft must be improved within 5 months.
"The Venice Committee mentions a most important point - not a single
constitutional amendment is guaranteed without political agreement",
informed Vardan Pogosyan.
