/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "Proposal of the ARFD parliamentary group about
involvement of the Armenian Parliament in negotiating of international
treaties is understandable and acceptable for me," Armenian MP Viktor
Dallakyan said.
However, according to him, that proposal cannot be applied in practice,
since the Armenian Constitution does not allow that. "Under the
Constitution the Parliament ratifies and denounces international
treaties only by the president' request. So unfortunately, according
to RA Constitution, Parliament has no right to take the initiative
to denounce or suspend a treaty," he stressed.
The MP also suggested to preserve the right of initiative to suspend
or denounce international treaties only for the president, since he
concludes international treaties. "A government should have the right
to make proposals to suspend a treaty," Victor Dallakyan said.
