YEREVAN. – We henceforth have a wide consolidation round the Armenian Electoral Code, spokesperson of the ruling Republican Party of Armenia (RPA) Eduard Sharmazanov, who is also the Deputy Speaker of Armenian National Assembly (NA), told journalists after the meeting of the RPA Executive Body Thursday.

According to him, the meeting addressed the Contact Line situation. The President presented the developments of the last week and the measures taken towards ensuring the security.

To the observation that some of the opposition forces insist that there has been no consensus on the Electoral Code during the third reading, Sharmazanov noted that the democracy implies pluralism and 100 percent consensus doesn’t happen even in the most democratic states.

“The Electoral Code was adopted by 102 votes, all the factions but for the Orinats Yerkir voting in its favor,” he said.

The Spokesperson also expressed conviction that the Bundestag will adopt the resolution condemning the Armenian Genocide on June 2. “Germany is a superpower, and the recognition of the Armenian Genocide by it is very important,” he noted.

“Our German partners at least note that they have precise principles. We will follow the events on June 2 and I think we will have an occasion to congratulate each other,” added Sharmaznov.
