  • In Armenia Instead of Democratic Governance, Plutocracy is Formed

    IN ARMENIA INSTEAD OF DEMOCRATIC FORM OF GOVERNANCE, PLUTOCRACY IS
    FORMED I.E.: SUPREME BODY OF ARF DASHNAKTSUTYUN


    YEREVAN, OCTOBER 1. ARMINFO. In Armenia instead of democratic form of
    governance, plutocracy is formed i.e. the power of the rich and the
    wealth, Representative of the Supreme Body of ARF Dashnaktsutyun Armen
    Roustamyan gave such a scientific characteristic to the situation in
    Armenia at a press-conference today.

    He said that the legislative filed in Armenia is brought in conformity
    with European standards, but there is a problem with fulfillment of
    these laws, as the Armenian mentality is as follows: know the law to
    evade them. He said that ARFD has elaborated a number of bills, due to
    which the country will overcome this situation and corruption will be
    reduced. Among these bills, Armen Roustamyan called those on the
    lobbying activity, on territorial administration, on guard service and
    others.

    Representative of ARFD Supreme Body pointed out that Armenia's change
    over from plutocracy to democracy requires refusal from the majority
    system of parliamentary elections, as the given system is de-facto
    purchase of deputy mandates. Roustamyan said that ARFD will do its
    best for reduction of the number of single-mandate seats in the bill
    on amendments to the Election Code. He said that it is necessary to
    cardinally change the election legislation of the country and create
    conditions for free and fair parliamentary and presidential elections
    in 2007-2008. He said that if the elections of 2007-2008 are held with
    violations like those in 2003, it will become a catastrophe of
    Armenia.

    Roustamyan attracted the attention of those present to the necessity
    of structural reforms in the judicial and legal sphere. He said that
    draft constitutional reforms must equalize the rights and powers of
    three branches of the power. He pointed out the necessity of
    correcting the staff policy. "There are high-ranking officials in
    Armenia, who preserve their posts behind the president's back,"
    Roustamyan said, adding that should need arise, ARFD will publish
    their names.
