GALOUST SAHAKYAN SEES NO NECESSITY TO CHANGE THE CONSTITUTION
Today Arthur Baghdasaryan announced that no political agreement has been
reached to discuss the Constitutional amendments, that’s why the issue will
not be discussed in this 4-day session. Another question is what will be
discussed if the discussion of the Constitutional amendments and the
Electoral Code is postponed.
A different question is how they will manage to carry out Constitutional
discussions, even formally, and when they will manage to reach political
agreement.
By the way, as for dates, it is clear that the commitments taken upon before
EU will not be met. Let us remind you that according to them to
Constitutional Amendments referendum was to be organized before June 2005.
Orinats Yerkir deputy head Hovhannes Margaryan does not doubt that they will
manage to meet the commitments. And according to Galoust Sahakyan, `it is
even positive that the discussion of the matter is postponed, as all the
political powers will treat the problem more responsibility’.
Let us note that Galoust Sahakyan does not consider the meeting of the
commitments obligatory, `We must not inspire people that commitment taken
upon is like a stigma. If we want to carry out structural changes, the
society must accept them. Otherwise, I think our Constitution can remain as
it is. The years have shown that we have a good Constitution’.
And still, Mr. Sahakyan considers that if we have chosen the path of
democracy, we must accept the offered changes. And although national
traditions of constitutional amendments have not been formed, according to
Sahakyan, he does not worry about dates.
