Ex-member of Karabakh Committee Albert Baghdasaryan said that it is necessary to implement new constitutional reforms in Armenia. The current Constitution creates a legislative basis for the existing authoritarian regime in the country, Baghdasaryan noted during a sitting of the commission on state and legal issues of the national parliament, which is in process of formation at the initiative of Sardarapat movement.

According to Baghdasaryan, elections will continue being falsified in Armenia, unless a fair judicial system is established in the country. “The judicial system should be withdrawn from the RA President’s jurisdiction to make it independent and fair,” he said. Meanwhile, Baghdasaryan excluded riots and revolutions for the problem resolution. According to him, all political forces, which agree with the necessity of constitutional reforms, should unite around this idea.

Baghdasayan noted that the united political forces should take active participation in the upcoming parliamentary elections to consolidate their potential.

“But the parliamentary elections will serve as a springboard for our further struggle during the presidential elections. In other words, we should focus on the presidential elections,” the ex-member of Karabakh committee noted.

To avoid possible falsifications during the presidential elections, the united political forces should achieve de-facto change of power in the country before the voting, as it happened in 1990-s.

“As soon as we come to power, we will establish a provisional government for a two-year term. This administration will resign upon completion of the two-year term. But prior to it, the provisional government should implement the aforementioned constitutional reforms within the first six months, conduct parliamentary elections within the next six months and introduce amendments to the RA Election Code. After it, the provisional government will hold elections to local self-government bodies within the first six months of the second year and will resign during the second half of it, and new presidential elections will be called,” concluded Albert Baghdasaryan.
