YEREVAN, DECEMBER 20, NOYAN TAPAN. The National Unity party
considers that the 2005 referendum of constitutional amendments was
grossly falsified, and the country cannot develop with a falsified
Constitution. Gagik Tadevosian, the Vice-Chairman of the National
Unity party, stated at the December 20 discussion on the subject
"Ways of Armenia's Development Having Prospects."
According to him, the Constitution needs re-editing, and that
document of vital importance for the country should be adopted in
honest conditions and conditions of national agreement.
G. Tadevosian said that independence of judicial power is also one
of the important preconditions for country's development. But we
do not have this independence in Armenia yet. The other important
precondition for country's development, according to the National Unity
party, is passage to a parliamentary republic. In G. Tadevosian's
opinion, an absolute proportional system should be stipulated by
the Electoral Code. "In the respect of our mentality and traditions,
in the majoritarian electoral system we have a parliament of clan,
oligarch representatives and those of the criminal system," he said.
The NU party Vice-Chairman said that the ways of solution of all these
problems will be mentioned in the preelection program under the title
Creation Program of Artashes Geghamian nominated as a candidate for
presidency by the party. It will be published in the first decade
of January. In G. Tadevosian's words, "person's conscience, hands,
soul, past, and biography should be free and clean." In this respect,
according to him, A. Geghamian is free of bonds: he has not taken
part in the robbery and crimes of either the former or the current
authorities.
