Some of the judges of the Constitutional Court (CC) are obviously politically influenced by some political groups, parties, or individuals. Lilit Makunts, head of the majority My Step faction in the National Assembly of Armenia, stated this during the YES campaign—in the forthcoming referendum on constitutional amendments—in Goris town.

According to her, the CC judges do this openly and by voicing political texts. "They do it in spite of the fact that the judge has no right to engage in politics and has no right to voice political texts," Makunts said. “Taking into account also that the Armenian government has initiated a large agenda for judicial reforms which implies that the judicial system [in the country] should be cleaned, changed, and its work should become effective, naturally, those CC judges who are politically influenced will not approve that reforms’ agenda we are initiating."

She stressed that the judiciary in Armenia should be independent so that if any force tries to rig the elections in the future, the CC, which the people will change by saying “yes” in the forthcoming referendum, will not correct any fraud.
