It remains the
CE to adopt.The Armenian Parliamentarians at the head of Tigran
Torosian will try to assure the commission of Venice that the settlements of the
coalition round the Constitutional amendments are correspondent to the European
criteria. How they succeed in it will be found out on 19 of June when it will
be clear if the issue of the Armenian constitutional amendments is included in
the PACE agenda specially or isn’t. The member of Armenian delegation in PACE
Shavarsh Kocharian is sure that this time the issue will be included in the agenda
and it will be discussed as our authorities has already expired the limit of confidence.
And by Mr. Kocharian that discussion will give a thing only: "Armenia will
be left out from the CE or the authorities of the delegation will be stopped.
And we mustn’t underestimate the reality that the CE is exasperated."If
the member of "Justice" group Shavarsh Kocharian is sure that this time
it is impossible to deceive then the members of coalition wonder why we must be
left out from the CE when the coalition discusses the suggestions of the Commission
of Venice and try to find ways.The RPA leader Galust Sahakian produced what
he called solutions. The matter of electoral way of the Yerevan mayor will be
settled by a separate law, the parliament will appoint the Public Prosecutor by
the President’s proposal, the members of the council will appoint the chairman
of the Council of Justice. "It was tried to politicize the issue as if Venice
do new suggestions which the majority doesn’t adopt. We mustn’t think that any
country, any international council oblige Armenia. Armenia is a true CE member
and there isn’t any factor of obligation."In contrast to the member of
the coalition, for the representative of the opposition Shavarsh Kocharian the
matter is clearer; we are all hostages in the hands of a person. "Robert
Kocharian realizes very well that it is excluded for him to be elected for the
third time, he wants but he also understands that it is impossible any more. His
main aim now is the following: to do everything to appoint one of his adherents
in the post of the President who will provide him for the guarantees of safety.
And if the Constitution of the country reforms and becomes democratic, nobody
can give him such guarantees. The future President must have the same authorities
what the current President has to give such guarantees. There is an interest of
two persons, the person who wants to get guarantees and another person who must
have levers for giving those guarantees. Both our people and Karabakh are hostages
in favor of this interest."The chairman of the commission of state-juridical
issues Rafik Petrosian doesn’t share this remark. He is sure that there is nothing
like this: "Royal authority has always wanted to keep in its hands both the
spiritual and executive and juridical authority. And all countries of the world
have such an aspiration. But the aspiration is one thing and the reality is another."Rafik
Petrosian thinks that if Armenia integrates into European structure it must adopt
the rules of the game. "The decisions of the commission aren’t obliged for
us but if we don’t adopt we may have juridical consequences. The last thought
of Mr. Petrosian was the most exiting: "From the bottom of our hearts we
want to stay as a member of Euro family."Margaret Yeseayan
