ArmInfo. Constitution of Armenia was adopted due to our consistent
struggle against Levon Ter-Petrosyan’s regime, Leader of the Union for
Self-Determination Paruyr Hayrikyan said at Hayatsk Debate Club,
Friday.
He said:’Ter-Petrosyan’s team got power and it did not care for the
constitution’. ‘Levon Ter-Petrosyan wrote the Constitution for himself
and it contained no method of forming the National Assembly’, P.
Hayrikyan said. The Constitution must be above everything, he said.
Although the Constitution of Armenia is not perfect, it has become the
support of the public during emergency situations. P. Hayrikyan
outlined the omissions in the Constitution and the necessity of
reckoning with the opinion of electors. As regards the establishment of
Public Council, P. Hayrikyan said that structure will not be one of the
three power branches and will have no crucial role in implementation of
power mechanism as well as in the dialogue authorities-opposition.
