SPECIAL SESSION FULFILLED ITS MISSION: ELECTORAL CODE IS ADOPTED

Politics

Today the parliamentarians adopted the Electoral Code with 74 deputies for and 0 against, while two deputies abstained from voting. Before voting the head of the working group processing the Criminal Code, Samvel Nikoyan, announced that the offers of the deputies have been included into the draft. Member of the Orinats Yerkir party Hovhannes Margaryan who strictly opposed the draft yesterday, said today that he cannot vote it down.

Robert Kocharyan had applied to the Parliament asking to cancel the agreement about RA membership in the CIS economic court. Hmayak Hovhannisyan has once managed to turn down the request. Nevertheless, this time, despite his efforts, the deputies accepted the request of the President: RA membership in the CIS economic court was canceled. 74 deputies voted for it.
