Armenia’s accession to the Council of Europe and this draft are incompatible. This is what human rights activist Ruben Melikyan wrote on his Facebook page today.

“Just minutes ago, members of the My Step Alliance posted on the website of the National Assembly this draft of the amendments to the Constitution.

I have never seen any document that contradicts jurisprudence, the Constitution and statehood this much.

I am certain that Armenia’s accession to the Council of Europe and this draft are incompatible,” he wrote and posted the document.
