IS TODAY BETTER THAN YESTERDAY?
Support A1+!«What does rejecting the Constitution mean? It means that the 1995 Constitution will continue in vigor», this perspective does not please the secretary of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation Parliamentary fraction Hrayr Karapetyan.
The members of the ARF have their subjective attitude towards the first Constitution, «We all know that the Constitution was made for the authorities only, let alone the conditions in which it was adopted – closed newspapers and prohibited opposition (ARF)».
Today the ARF which forms part of the coalition think that it is the most convenient moment to realize the Constitutional reforms. «Both Manouk Gasparyan and Artashes Geghamyan think it is a good version, the only problem is that we should not adopt it under Robert Kocharyan. Everyone says that we should adopt it as quickly as possible», said Mr. Karapetyan forgetting that the year 2005 is somehow like the year 1995: there are parties which are suppressed in a more «civilized» way by the authorities, and there are closed TV Companies – «A1+» and «Noyan Tapan».
Nevertheless, according to Mr. Karapetyan, there is a weak point in the draft resolution: the main aim of Armenia, that is the creation of a United Armenia, is not stipulated, «After the Great Patriotic War Germany announced its main aim – two unite the two Germanys, and they reached their aim», added the ARF fraction secretary.
