The fakeness should be very obvious to everyone. I don’t rule it out if there is enough

On June 12, the recalculation of the voting results of 555 precinct election commissions will be completed, and the CEC will publish the final results of the parliamentary elections on June 14.

Various public and political circles warn that the elections were held with violations and were accompanied by repressions, therefore, their legality should be disputed in general. By the way, the “Armenia” bloc has already announced that it will appeal to the Constitutional Court to challenge the results of the elections.

What to expect from the Constitutional Court? 168.amclarified From Aram Orbelyan, manager-partner of “Concern Dialog” law office, specialist in international law, lawyer.

In response, Aram Orbelyan elaborated: “There are 3 circumstances. the first, the evidence base, which at the moment, according to the records we are familiar with according to the publications of mass media and social networks, is quite large. And if it is completed and coordinated, it becomes obvious that these elections cannot be fair and transparent, because the volume of these violations is such that it affected the results. The mere fact that, as a result of all recalculations, problems were found, already proves the minimum: organizational problems and the quality of organization.

The second, which refers to the expectation from the Constitutional Court. the minimum expectation is that it will be possible to directly show these falsehoods through a court hearing, so that the people will not only be informed about it from political talk, but will clearly see that there is a problem. I do not rule out that, if there is sufficient political and civil activity at that time, the Constitutional Court will also make a different decision with everything it has.

Another decision, this is the 3rd point, can be from a limited criticizing decision that, for example, the election was not fair, to ending with declaring the election invalid.

The lawyer added that he considers the possibility of the latter to be very small, but does not rule it out. And the small probability, according to him, is due not to the problems of the evidence field, but to the problems of the structure of the Constitutional Court.

“Now we have exclusively 1 judges appointed by the government,” he remarked.

Aram Orbelyan, however, emphasized that the expectations should not only be from the Constitutional Court, but also from ourselves, from the civil active circle, from the NGOs, from the parties, so that the process is not a discussion of a standard application, but becomes a constitutional process.

“The most typical example of this was the process taking place within the framework of pension reforms, where both the law was discussed in the Constitutional Court, and in parallel with it, civil society activity and activity took place,” explained the specialist.

Aram Orbelyan responded to the observation that the decision of the Supreme Court will be followed by the decision of the political forces on whether to take mandates or not, and to the question: which decision does he consider to be the right one at the moment?

“In this case, I have a clear idea that not taking mandates is not an option, but with one “but”. this implies that before that there should be the process I mentioned, the falsity should be very obvious for everyone, and if it was possible to show the falsity very obviously for everyone, then the discussion will not be about taking a mandate or not. The problem is not the instrument of taking a mandate, but the instrument of not going to a quiet parliament. In other words, receiving that mandate does not prevent them from admitting that the process is falsified, and political activity, political activism within it will continue, because any political process that will take place, unless the decision of the Constitutional Court is invalid and will mean new elections, a new vote, accordingly implies that there must be some other process: it can be either a resignation or a confidence process, but for all those processes, it must be in the parliament. representation”.
