YEREVAN, DECEMBER 25, NOYAN TAPAN. "We dispute not the issue of
legality of the activity of the "Constitutional Right Union" party,
what is really an issue of the Constitutional Court (CC), but the
legality of the vote results of the party’s last conference." Karen
Vardanian, one of the claimants on the issue of recognizing invalid
results of the Constitutional Right Union congress made such a
statement at the December 25 press conference. In his words, the
issue of violations of the vote for the party heading bodies has no
relation with the Constitutional Court. Commenting upon the innerparty
developments of the Constitutional Right Union during the recent
months, K.Vardanian qualified them as "a revolution," expressing a
confidence that its authors are other forces. At the same time he
found it difficult to state names of those forces, emphasizing that
they have no possibility of holding their investigation.
And, in K.Vardanian’s words, Constitutional Right Union former Chairman
Hrant Khachatrian’s words about leaving the policy must not be accepted
seriously: "those are a consequence of the shock arisen because of the
friend’s betrayal." Touching upon the sale of places at the commissions
by some heads of Constitutional Right Union at the last parliamentary
elections, K.Vardanian mentioned that "Nor Zhamanakner (New Times)
party Chairman Aram Karapetian must be interested" in interpretation
of that issue as the happened directly damaged his political interests.
