ARF Bureau Member Vahan Hovannesian signs a petition calling on the
Armenian Government not to sign the protocols.
YEREVAN (Yerkir)-The Armenian Revolutionary Federation Supreme Council
of Armenia announced Tuesday that after receiving the authorities'
response on questions regarding the process of the Armenia-Turkey
rapprochement, it plans to sue the government to prove the Foreign
Ministry's and government's unconstitutional actions.
The ARF parliamentary bloc petitioned the government to provide all
documents and reports detailing the Armenia-Turkey rapprochement from
the onset of the process to the present.
"The responses already pose serious questions. We are going to
introduce our concerns for discussion in the National Assembly,"
said ARF Supreme Council of Armenia chairman Armen Rustamian.
The responses to the 23-point questionnaire submitted to the government
illustrate that the Armenian government was completely unprepared
when it began and entered the process of rapprochement, said ARF bloc
member Artsvik Minasyan.
The lawmaker added that the government did not adhere to provisions of
Armenian law and called the answers "diplomatic and legal illiteracy."
Minasyan explained that the ARF-initiated lawsuit will provide
the Constitutional Court grounds to reject the protocols as
unconstitutional.
