DEMONSTRATORS TO REMAIN IN FRONT OF COURT BUILDING UNTIL FINAL DECISION IS MADE
Tert.am
13:20 ~U 12.01.10
Protestors gathered in front of the Constitutional Court building
today have said they will remain until a final decision is reached
by the court. This opinion was expressed by one such protestor,
Armenian Revolutionary Federation (Dashnaktsutyun) MP Artsvik Minasyan.
As previously reported, the discussion on the Armenian-Turkish
Protocols began today in Armenia's Constitutional Court, in which
it will be decided whether the Protocols are in accordance with -
or in contradiction to - the country's constitution.
Manasyan reassured journalists that demonstrators wouldn't disperse
even in the case that the decision is announced tomorrow.
"People were affected also by yesterday's rally, [where] handed over
to the Constitutional Court was a clear legal, political approach,
and the not only political, but also legal solution explained [in the
document], allows one to say that the Constitutional Court has all of
the opportunities to recognize, at the very least, that these Protocols
don't correspond with the Constitution in part," noted Minasyan.
New Times party leader Aram Karapetyan, for his part, confidently, and
with regret, stated that the court will not recognize the Protocols as
contradicting the Constitution, despite all evidence to the contrary.
