    Analyst: Constitutional changes serve interests of one person

    July 05, 2014 | 19:06


    YEREVAN. - President of Armenia Serzh Sargsyan is willing to carry out
    constitutional reforms to reproduce his power, analyst Yervand Bozoyan
    toldArmenian News-NEWS.am.

    The current system was adopted in 1995 as it was the most unbiased
    system for transition to semi-presidential government.

    "According to the changes in 2005, the essence of this system has not
    changed, only the Government and the National Assembly received more
    powers. Today Armenia is experiencing regression rather than progress.
    Constitutional reforms are necessary, but we need to change the
    guidelines of the country," Bozoyan said.

    He believes the constitutional reforms can be carried out in 5-10
    years. However, this should not be done amid destroyed economic
    system.

    "The real motivation for constitutional reforms is that the incumbent
    president can not reproduce his power, but will be able to in case of
    transition to a parliamentary form of government. All is done in the
    interests of one person," the analyst added.

    Armenia marks Constitution Day on July 5.
