ARTUR SAKUNTS. "THE DRAFT CONCEPT PAPER SHOULD INCLUDE THAT RPA IS ARMENIA'S RULING FORCE AND THAT'S IT" (VIDEO)
July 11 2014
"In his speech, Gagik Harutyunyan was just reproducing textbook truths
or provisions, which are enshrined in international documents", such
expression was made by the Head of HCA Vanadzor office, Artur Sakunts,
in the conversation with Aravot.am, referring to the speech delivered
by the President of Constitutional Court (CC), Gagik Harutyunyan,
at the opening of international conference entitled "Constitutional
Reform in the Context of Democratic Development".
According to him, they were expecting to hear what the CC's position
is on these textbook truths, or what CC has done, and what decisions
it has made that contributed to the strengthening of these truths.
Whereas, Artur Sakunts mentions, "CC's shows in practice that it
displays more timid behavior, and does not ensure the principle of
the rule of law with its decisions." Citing a number of Constitutional
Court decisions, Mr. Sakunts said, "During sensitive political topics,
the Constitutional Court gives tribute to the interests of political
authorities. And definitely, I have the same concern on this issue."
Pursuant to Artur Sakunts, "all the crises-related issues will be
resolved when as a result of constitutional amendments, de jure,
one-party system will be strengthened." He ironically said, "We just
need to write down in the draft concept paper that RPA is Armenia's
ruling force, and the second Article that all RPA decisions are made
by Serzh Sargsyan. That's the end, as a result, the constitutional
amendments enshrined what we have today."
