PROPOSAL FOR REFERENDUM ON CONFIDENCE IN PRESIDENT NOT IMPERATIVE: CC
YEREVAN, APRIL 12. ARMINFO. The RA Constitutional Court (CC) stated
once more that by its decision of April 16, 2003, it upheld the
decision on the election of Robert Kocharian Armenia’s President,
which was adopted by the RA Central Electoral Commission on March 11,
2003. The CC’s decision was final and imperative.
In its statement provided to ARMINFO, the CC once more stressed that
the CC’s proposal for holding of a referendum on confidence in the
President within a year is not imperative and does not have any legal
consequences. According to the statement, the CC’s proposal was
supposed to relieve political tension on the threshold of the
parliamentary elections and referendum on constitutional amendments on
May 25, 2003. In its statement, the CC calls for retraining from
making its proposal a subject of political speculations.
