"According to the draft constitution the strongest branch of power
is the legislative", announced Tigran Torosyan today in answer to
the oppositional deputies who claim that the authorizations of the
President have been added or the PM Institute has been enhanced.
The NA deputy President accepted all the accusations the opposition
voiced, in particular - those about the absence of trust atmosphere,
forged elections and violation of human rights. "What shall we do to
solve those problems?" Tigran Torosyan asked the rhetoric question and
answered it himself: as far as the acting constitution does not offer
mechanisms of defense of human rights, we must adopt the amendments
to it.
Tigran Torosyan announced several times that the acting Constitution
has exhausted itself, and it must be amended. According to him,
thus the majority of the problems will be solved.
Member of the Justice bloc Stepan Zaqaryan noted that the articles
referring to the rights and interests of the RA citizens have not
been amended. He reminded that the acting constitution too demanded
to hold free and transparent elections, but we all know how they are
held in our country.
And Artashes Geghamyan advised the coalition to put down the mandates
and to dissolve.
As for the leader of the National Democratic Party Shavarsh Kocharyan,
he announced that his party will not call the people to say "No"
to the Constitution, as the decision of the people is already negative.
Hmayak Hovhannisyan again referred to the President's life immunity,
saying, "He can do whatever he wants, and the nation will not have
the possibility to call his to responsibility".
