I support the maintenance of the parliamentary immunity institution. This is what judge candidate of the Constitutional Court of Armenia Artur Vagharshyan said during consideration of the judge candidate at the National Assembly today, responding to a question from deputy of the ruling My Step Alliance Hovik Aghazaryan.

“The history of this institution traces back to England. We don’t have to eliminate this institution so that businessmen don’t try to become members of parliament. I think we need to separate the state, state and public power and service from business,” Vagharshyan highlighted.
