Lawyer: There is an urgent need for supremacy and enforcement of laws  in the country

ArmInfo.The early parliamentary elections, apparently, formed a qualitatively new parliament in Armenia and, in general, corrected the results of the December 2018  elections. The Chairman of the party, lawyer Norayr  Norikyan, expressed a similar opinion to ArmInfo.

"In my opinion, the results of the elections summed up the public  moods that were finally corrected after the 2018 elections. And the  withdrawal of two fairly large factions" Prosperous Armenia "and"  Bright Armenia "from the parliament was also the result of  fundamental changes in our political palette," he stressed. ...

At the same time, the lawyer emphasized that as a result of the  parliamentary elections, there were some people who had long had to  monitor the political processes in the country exclusively from  behind bars.  The latter, in his opinion, indicates the presence of a  paradoxical situation. People who were rejected by society and  removed from political processes 3 years ago received from society a  mandate of trust and the status of parliamentary opposition.

In his opinion, this phenomenon needs serious analysis and in-depth  research. However, the very absence of any post-election impulses,  the lawyer considers as consent to the admition of the election  results by all of their participants. The lawyer considers the  intention of the Hayastan bloc to challenge the election results in  the Constitutional Court to be the legitimate right of this force. At  the same time, he noted that the Electoral Code clearly regulates the  norms and circumstances, as a result of which the election results  may be invalidated.

Commenting on the statements of representatives of the ruling force  about the imminent establishment of a dictatorship of law following  the election results, the lawyer noted that this time has come long  ago. And today in the country there is an urgent need for supremacy  and the application of laws.

And today in the country there is an urgent need for supremacy  and the application of laws.  "I have always opposed the" velvet  "government of the country, believing that any power in the process  of government should be guided exclusively by laws and the  Constitution. The fact that in the last three years the institution  of responsibility has not worked in Armenia, and criminals have been  walking around freely is a fact. And now we will carefully consider  the steps taken by the authorities towards restoring the rule of law  in the country. The steps that Nikol Pashinyan is talking about again  today, "the lawyer summed up.

On Sunday, the CEC summed up the official results of the early  parliamentary elections in Armenia.  Nikol Pashinyan's party "Civil  Contract" gained 53.91%, Robert Kocharian's "Hayastan" bloc - 21.04%  of the vote. The third force in parliament was the "I Have the Honor"  bloc with 5.23% of the vote. Of the registered 2 million 595,512  voters, 49.39% of voters voted.  Thus, the Civil Contract will be  represented in the parliament of the 8th convocation with 71  mandates, the "Armenia" and "I Have the Honor" blocs with 29 and 7  mandates, respectively.
