KHOSROV HARUTIUNYAN IS CONTENT WITH PARLIAMENT CONFIGURATION
Support A1+!Khosrov Harutiunyan, the leader of the Christian Democratic Party (CDP), stated today that he is satisfied with the configuration of the parliament set on May 12. “The elections opened a new page, and the country took a new course of development. The constitutional referendum provides a legal ground and the NA elections - a political ground for this assumption.”
To remind, the CDP leader was running for the elections by the majoritarian system at Precinct 10 and got 7000 votes.
According to him, elections were not flawless, though international observers gave positive assessment. “The logic of the political struggle has shifted from political confrontation to political pluralism. There is a chance to turn these political achievements into tangible results for the society.” And according to him, the positive evaluation of the international observers is a chance to rehabilitate the international reputation of Armenia and its importance in the region. It should be cherished, Khosrov Harutiunyan believes.
Nevertheless, it does not mean that the parliamentary corps will be able to meet the expectations of the society, thinks the CDP leader. The government should combat arbitrariness, corruption, protectionism. Otherwise, the presidential election will not be the logical continuation of the parliamentary election, Khosrov Harutiunyan thinks.
“I wish Shavarsh Kocharyan, the leader of the National Democratic Party, were elected to the NA. Although with some exceptions, I don't feel pity for other forces that were not elected to parliament. They could not affect the quality of the political process. Furthermore, the elections put an end to some quasi-political legends,” Khosrov Harutiunyan said.
