Head of the ARF Dashnaktsutyun parliamentary group Vahan Hovhannisyan
said during the discussions on the amendments to the election code to
pass to proportional representation that it is not necessary to discuss
which representation is better the majoritarian or the proportional,
as the authorities do.

“Don’t think we have read and know less than you do. Today, it is not
the parliament to form the executive power, but the executive branch
forms the parliament through the majoritarian elected MPs. So, there
can be no change of power, for this you have introduced a draft law
to prevent a change of power through the armed forces too”, he said.

ARFD Supreme Body representative Armen Rustamyan stated that the
concepts of party, power and state are identified now. He added
that there is no political and ideological fight in the majoritarian
representation but only financial and administrative levers.

Head of the Heritage parliamentary group Stepan Safaryan noted
the authorities make the democracy a mutant through the mixed
representation.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
