United Working Party (MAK) voted against the package of legal acts
submitted by the government yesterday and proposed recommendation
to the government. The package included Law on Dual Citizenship,
which caused the protest of MAK.
Grigor Ghonjenyan, secretary of MAK block, says his party has made
recommendations saying some restrictions must be made in the law,
particularly that people with dual citizenship should not become a
prime minister or a member of government.
Hovanes Igityan, member of Pan-Armenian National Movement (HHSh) board,
said that in fact the people with dual citizenship are citizens of
Armenia and must enjoy the rights of the Armenian constitutions. He
believes that many will apply to the Constitutional court to consider
the restriction invalid and will eventually win.
Ghonjeyan cited the provision in the Constitution saying that he
rights and responsibilities of citizens with dual citizenship are
defined by law.
