  • DPA Rep: Women Must Subject Political Process to Qualitative Change

    IN WORDS OF DEMOCRATIC PARTY REPRESENTATIVE, WOMEN MUST SUBJECT
    POLITICAL PROCESSES TO QUALITATIVE CHANGES

    YEREVAN, APRIL 2, NOYAN TAPAN. Women in Armenia must strive for
    accepting posts both in legislative and in executive power to correct
    faults of work of man politicians. Heghine Bisharian, the Deputy
    Chairwoman of the "Orinats Yerkir" (Country of Law) party (OYP),
    nominated as a deputy's candidate at district electoral commission
    No11 (Shengavit-Erebuni) by the majoritarian electoral system,
    expressed such an opinion at the April 2 debate. In her words, today
    women meet obstacles during their political activity just for the
    reason that they are representatives of the fair sex. For example, in
    H. Bisharian's words, corresponding bodies of the community of
    Shengavit first of all for that reason do not allow to fasten her
    pre-electoral posters in places envisaged for them, and then for the
    reason that she is a representative of an opposing party.

    Another participant of the debate, Karine Hakobian, a member of the
    Democratic Party of Armenia (DPA), former Deputy Minister of Labour
    and Social Issues, at present occupying the third horizontal of the
    DPA proportional electoral list, mentioned that women must subject the
    political processes to a qualitative change. In her words, though
    women really have much to do in the political sphere, but their
    striving for creating political biography must not be an end in
    itself. In K. Hakobian's words, if women enter the parliament in the
    way as the men do, that's, owing to falsifications, nothing will
    change to better.
