YEREVAN. – The incumbent authorities have a great "ability" to meaninglessly make a hero out of someone with low trust. Edmon Marukyan, head of the opposition Bright Armenia faction, said this at today's meeting with reporters in the National Assembly, referring to the current tension between the authorities and Constitutional Court President Hrayr Tovmasyan.
"The statements are directed to the authorities to bring their actions in line with the standards of the rule of law and democracy," he said. "Otherwise, these statements will become a report tomorrow in the hands of the co-rapporteurs."
Head of the Armenian delegation to PACE Ruben Rubinyan responded to this statement and noted that Marukyan was misrepresenting the situation.
