"ARMENIA HAS NO STRUCTURE WHERE LEADER-WOMAN CAN BE FORMED," HRANUSH
HAKOBIAN SAYS
YEREVAN, MARCH 2, NOYAN TAPAN. Nearly 60% voters in Armenia are women,
but they mainly vote for men-candidates. RA National Assembly deputy
Hranush Hakobian made such a statement at the March 2 press conference
meanwhile saying that she has no occasion to complain in this respect,
as woman-voters trust her as well. In her words, involvement of women
is important for Armenian political system's becoming fully-fledged.
In H. Hakobian's words, the provision stipulated in RA Electoral Code
on her initiative, according to which 5% quota of women's inclusion in
proportional lists reached 15%, was essential in this respect. In
H. Hakobian's words, Armenia has no structure "where a leader-woman
can be formed, can become politically matured: today only
non-governmental organizations and parties play this role." In her
words, it is essential how much media contribute to formation of
positive image of political figures. "There are stereotypes,
according to which they forgive leader-men, but public responds
sharply to even small mistakes of a woman," H. Hakobian said.
