ArmInfo. A absurd situation has developed around the candidates in the judge of the Courtation Court of Armenia.

This was announced on March 5 at a meeting with journalists, the  leader of the opposition party "Enlightened Armenia" and the same  name of the Armenian parliament of the Armenian Parliament, Edmond  Maugony, commenting on the situation with the election of the judge  of the Cassation Court.  Recall that on the eve of after three days  of discussion as a result of a secret ballot in parliament, none of  the three candidates for Judge CC - Samvel Grigoryan, Armen Aikianz  and Arsen Mkrtchyan - did not receive the necessary number of votes.  The head of the "My step" faction, Lilith Makunts noted that the  deputies of the faction will not be elected members of the Court of  Cassation, nominated by the Chairman of the Supreme Judicial Council  by Ruben Vardazaryan. According to her, "my step" relates to the  judges- promoters with deep respect, but taking into account the  circumstances that Ruben Vardazaryan nominated them, the deputies  will not support them. "Thereby we express our position to him, and  not to the candidates," said Makunz. According to her, the stumbling  block was the statement of Vardazaryan from November 15, where he  called on his colleagues to show who they were honest professionals,  or "just whining in the gentlemen." During the debate, the deputies  asked Vardazaryan to explain what they mean his words, because the  judges are not entitled to make political statements. "Vardasaryan's  explanations were not exhaustive and confirmed our concern that Mr.  Vardasaryan politicizes the judicial system," said Makunts.

Meanwhile, as Edmond Marukyan believes if the ruling majority has  problems with the Chairman of the WCC, they must solve them in a  separate manner. But professionals, ready to fulfill their mission in  the cassation court, should not suffer. "And all this happens in the  country in which it is impossible to be so inefficient to spend the  entire state resource, when, according to the results of three days  of discussions in parliament, we actually encountered a boycott from  the ruling strength, "the deputy noted. He added that the head of the  CC was never his hero, but he was never It was nominated just ruling  power, expecting that he will fulfill its orders. "Power is dishonest  in this matter. What do we want to have a truly independent judicial  system or the owl of the authorities? "- asked a deputy's question.  He noted that all over the world there is an interesting indicator:  if the government criticizes the judiciary, this means that the  judiciary works well. ARUs sent his behavior to the international  community that works efficiently.
