YEREVAN. – After making a regime change, the “New Armenia” Public Salvation Front will form a government that enjoys the people’s trust.

Member of the political council of this front, Armen Martirosyan, who is also Vice-Chairman of the opposition Heritage Party Board, noted the aforementioned at Wednesday’s introduction of the “New Armenia” platform.

“This government will have two key functions,” Martirosyan said. “First and foremost, the government shall keep the country in a stable condition until the holding of early elections (…), and there will be no legislative changes during this time. Second, we need to prepare for the new early elections.”

The “New Armenia” Public Salvation Front was officially formed on October 12. Its members state that they will change the country’s ruling regime by December 6.

On October 5, the National Assembly passed, and by a vast majority of votes, the decision on agreeing to hold a referendum on the draft amendments to the Constitution.

Pursuant to the new draft Constitution, Armenia will make a transition from a semi-presidential to a parliamentary system of governance, and conduct completely proportional parliamentary elections.

The opponents of the proposed constitutional amendments, however, consider these amendments to be the authorities’ attempt to hang on to power.

The President has set December 6 as Referendum Day.
