ArmInfo. Political Coalition of Armenia makes a statement.
Thus, the statement says that confirming the commitments to the
electors to make reforms in the country and the conformity of the
proposals by PACE Resolution 1609 to these reforms and the goals
pursued by the Agreement on Political Coalition, as well as confirming
the priority of European orientation in the versatile foreign policy of
the country and Armenia's commitments to the CE, the coalition states
that it intends 'to carry out reforms to fulfill the campaign programs
and the tasks envisaged by the coalition agreements, government
activity program and PACE Resolution 1609. In particular, these are
better involvement of the opposition into the country's political
system, considerable promotion of public confidence in election
processes, freedom of speech and independence of Media, and full
adaptation of the judicial system to European standards'.
The given reforms must promote sustainable democratic institutions and
ensure supremacy of the law in Armenia, the statement says. 'Assertion
of the opposition's rights in conformity with European standards must
be followed by specification of political responsibility of all the
political forces, freedom of press - definition of the rules of
professional ethics and legal responsibilities, rights to assemblies
and processions - law abidance, protection of rights and freedoms of
other citizens and security of the country', the statement says.
The coalition calls up all the political forces to dialogue and
effective cooperation for the love of fully-fledged and fast resolving
of these tasks. 'In this context we think the president's initiative
and setting up of the working group to study suggestions mentioned in
PACE Resolution 1609 and coordination of actions for their fulfillment
are very important, and we are sorry for refusal of a member to PACE
delegation, leader of the Heritage party parliamentary faction Raffi
Hovannissian to work in this group', - the statement says. It also says
that the political coalition is waiting from the working group for
strict actions on fulfillment of the suggestions of the resolution, in
particular, on independent investigation of the post-election
processes.
The statement was signed by four political forces of the coalition:
Republican Party of Armenia, Prosperous Armenia party, ARF
Dashnaktiutyun and Orinats Yerkir party.
