DIRECTION OF COUNTRY'S DEVELOPMENT HAS DEVIATED FROM WAY DECLARED BY
CONSTITUTION LONG AGO, LARISA ALAVERDIAN SAYS
YEREVAN, DECEMBER 25, NOYAN TAPAN. The Zharangutiun (Heritage) party
does not have a formed collective position yet on supporting any
candidate in the forthcoming presidential elections. As Styopa
Safarian, the Secretary of the party's parliamentary faction, said at
the December 25 press conference, the decision to be made by the
country in the future will greatly depend on the response of the
candidates for presidency to the questionnaire consisting of 22
questions.
Replying to the observation that some questions are not correct, S.
Safarian said: "We do not wish to be a country, where it will be
written on the candidates "do not ask any questions." We wish to be a
country, where every one can ask a question, receive an answer and thus
orient himself for whom to vote."
Larisa Alaverdian, a member of the faction, in her turn, noted that
Zharangutiun representatives' activity in electoral commissions should
be aimed at supporting not any candidate, but norms proper to a legal
state, as "the direction of country's development has deviated from the
way declared by the Constitution long ago."
A brief report on Zharangutiun faction's parliamentary and
extra-parliamentary activity was presented at the press conference.
According to it, the faction being the smallest in the NA in its
number, tried to as far as possible pursue solution of problems, which
proceed from its pre-election program and about which society is
anxious. The faction members also carried out activity aimed at human
rights protection, as well as were engaged in problems of protection of
public property, environmental, citizens' housing, and other issues.
The faction members expressed their discontent with the fact that NA
failed to discuss reports on activity of a number of state structures,
in particular, of Ombudsman, by the end of the year.
