We have a crisis of democracy and legal state. in addition to the legal embarrassment, all this has an element of great moral embarrassment; Vardevanyan about the detention of deputies

We have the fact that our friends were detained for so many months. "Armenia" faction MP Aram Vardevanyan said this in a conversation with journalists, referring to the decision of the Supreme Court on the immunity of MPs. "At the session of August 2, I literally read Article 96 of the Constitution three times. I am sorry that not a single deputy of the ruling faction was present in the National Assembly to say: I read Article 96, and why are you detaining those people?" We have a crisis of democracy, legal state, because the Constitutional Court is one of the last measures. Apart from the legal shame, all this has a component of great moral shame. The decision of the Constitutional Court is binding not for me, for you, but first of all for civil servants," he said. Aram Vardevanyan mentioned that the same prison cannot keep the deputies. "Wait, what should you name it?" he said. He mentioned that if you abolish arrests, you have to have new grounds to detain a person again and assured that this will never happen. When asked whether he does not see a political trend in the decision of the CC, the deputy said no. "There are some simple truths that no matter how much they pressure the Constitutional Court, it is impossible to say the opposite. If something is black, they will say it is black, it is white, they will say it is white, and if there are several colors, the pressure is effective there," he said and noted that although the Constitutional Court could have made a decision earlier, it could have made it later.

The President of Artsakh Republic Araik Harutyunyan sent a message on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the Artsakh Independence Referendum. "Dear compatriots Exactly 30 years ago, in 1991 on December 10, in the conditions of military operations and shelling of peaceful settlements, our people organized the Independence Referendum at a high level and marked the path by which we should reach the milestone of our goals. With the Constitution of the Republic of Armenia adopted in 2006, we reaffirmed our loyalty to the values ​​and ideas with which the foundations of our newly independent statehood were laid. And no matter how difficult and bloody this thirty-year march was, we managed to build and strengthen our statehood with nationwide efforts, continuing the values-based course of the Artsakh movement. Despite the mediation efforts of the OSCE Minsk Group for the peaceful settlement of the Azerbaijani-Karabakh conflict, non-use of force from the three well-known principles presented to the conflicting parties, and other well-known principles of international law, Azerbaijan repeatedly carried out military aggressions against the Republic of Artsakh and its civilian population, of which the aggression of 2020 became the most severe test for our statehood and people. Regardless of the large-scale human, territorial, material and moral-psychological consequences caused by it, the Republic of Artsakh is standing, and the will and endurance of our people on the chosen path of independence is unshakable. Among its bright indicators are the presence of around 120,000 people in this short period of time, the provision of a high percentage of the security environment, the work and development efforts of state institutions, and the restoration of infrastructure and economy. It is noteworthy that the state bodies not only perform their vital powers based on the Constitution and legislation of the Republic of Armenia, but also symbolically, today in two large communities, elections of local self-governing bodies are taking place as small but important manifestations of our determination to build a state.
