The representative of the ARF supreme Body Armen Rustamyan on January
13 presented the ARF stance in connection with the decision of the
Constitutional Court concerning the Armenian and Turkish protocols.
Though, the CC declared the protocols corresponding to the RA
Constitution, ARF notices points which can be considered achievements.
Armen Rustamyan says their final aim is to normalize the Armenian and
Turkish relations so not to pose to danger our national interests and
the rights of our generations. Rustamyan says that the Point 4 of the
Constitution which sets that this cannot have anything in common with
a third country is enough to refuse the protocols where the opposite
is clearly stated. He adds that after the CC decision on this point,
the first step of the Armenian government had to be the dismissal of
the foreign minister Nalbandyan.
According to Rustamyan the Armenian government has two ways: first,
the problem is that the NA cannot make reservations which is illogic.
So this must be changed for the NA to be able to make reservations.
The second way is that the Armenian president has all the rights to
make reservations and only after to introduce the protocols before
the parliament. According to Rustamyan, if none of these versions is
chosen, this will mean that the ARF demand are unfulfilled.
Rustamyan says that after, only the process of declaring the protocols
invalid will start which will be very difficult and will mean change of
government. He adds such a government is needed which will tell Turkey
that it does not accept anti-Armenian protocols and preconditions.
Armen Rustamyan says that the ARF will have enough power to carry out
that shift of government if the society understands the importance
of the issue and supports the ARF. Otherwise, the ARF will naturally
remain alone in that process.
