MAJORITY NOT DETERMINED YET
The RA President forms the National Security Council and appears as its
chairman - this amendment is provided by a draft of changes to the acting
Constitution. To date a National Security Council is functioning in Armenia;
however it was not formed on the basis of a concrete constitutional clause.
Presently the Security Council is ruled by the President, while the Defense
Minister is its Secretary.
Should the formation of the Security Council be fixed by the Constitution?
We addressed this question to 100 citizens April 8-12.
22% of the respondents consider that there is no need in it but they could
not explain why. 43% of those surveyed found difficulty in answering. 35%
hold the opinion that the Council should be formed on the constitutional
basis. `The appropriate body should be engaged in an appropriate activity',
one of the citizens said.
To note, half of the respondent consider that the body should not be
necessarily headed by the President
