We face a tough domestic political situation. In order to mitigate
this situation, we propose amending the Constitution, leader of the
Union of National Democrats Arshak Sadoyan told a news conference
today.

First of all, we should create a parliament including representatives
of Armenian Diaspora, Sadoyan said.

“We propose amending the Constitution, making the Armenian parliament
a two-chamber body. One chamber will be composed of MPs elected by
proportional system, the other will have 30 seats held by MPs from
Armenian provinces elected by majoritarian system, plus a little more
than 30 seats for Diaspora representatives,” the politician said.

We can come out of this situation if Raffi Hovannisian and Serzh
Sargsyan accept this proposal, Sadoyan added.
