ArmInfo. MP from the ruling "My Step" faction Hovik Aghazaryan suggests that Armenia should switch to a bicameral parliamentary system. Armenia should have a bicameral parliamentary system. He said this on April 16 from the rostrum of the parliament.
"In my personal opinion, we should move to a bicameral parliamentary system. We will have an upper house, let's say of a hundred people, in addition to this one. Half of these representatives will be from Artsakh and this part of our Homeland (RA,ed.), and the remaining 50 people will be from all over the world, that is, from representatives of our diaspora. They will meet once a year and perform certain functions, " the deputy explained.
Aghazaryan noted that there are certain comments of lawyers on this matter - that this idea itself contradicts the Constitution of Armenia and international law, "Yes, there are questions, but we can start with the Public Chamber - start forming it on this principle, and gradually, as far as our Constitution and international law allow, increase the powers of this structure, we will see where we can come to," the pro - government MP concluded.
