The rumors that Robert Kocharyan is for the 100 percent proportional
system of election are not true, said Victor Soghomonyan, the speaker
of president August 30. Victor Soghomonyan says Robert Kocharyan has
two reasons to be against it.
"I will give two reasons. First, the political forces forming
government today, which the news reporters call coalition after
certain changes, met and came to an arrangement on the present
correlation. I mean the 90/41 format. And the president is against
breaking arrangements," says Victor Soghomonyan.
According to him, the president is also against 100 percent
proportional system of elections because the political sphere is
still imperfect. Victor Soghomonyan says the president thinks it
is wrong to rip off the member of parliament from the voter, which
can be sustained by the majority system of election with the current
imperfect political sphere. "And this figure enables having members of
parliament elected from constituencies who will have direct contact
with their voters," says the speaker of the president of Armenia,
hinting at the provision on 41 members of parliament elected under
the majority system foreseen by the Electoral Code reform.
