Right at the first minutes of the meeting Armenia’s Constitutional
Court made a decision to hold hearings on Armenian-Turkish protocols
in the closed-door regime for an hour, despite it was scheduled to
begin open hearings.

However, even after an hour, the doors are still closed, and there
are neither detailed comments on the happening.

Secretary of the Parliamentary Faction of the Republican Party of
Armenia Edward Sharmazanov said can’t forecast whatever. Â"As the
hearings on protocols are logged I can’t say how long it can take.

Every single argument must be discussed in details, this is a very
serious matter," he said.

The process is a very complicated and it demands a certain time,
according to the member of ARFD, Armen Rustamian. "There were long and
detailed discussions. I believe, court’s members got acquainted with
the case, so it will not take a long time to hold hearings," he said.

Heritage Party’s leader Stepan Safarian, in his turn, said there
would be made neither decision by the Constitutional Court today.

Meanwhile, spokespersons to Armenia’s Constitutional Court will report
news every two hour since 1 p.m.
