The draft on constitutional amendments must definitely be checked for its compliance with the non-amendable articles of the Constitution, it must be checked in advance before putting to a referendum. The President of the Constitutional Court (CC) of Armenia, Arman Dilanyan, told this to Armenian News-NEWS.am, referring to the proposed constitutional reforms.

"We [i.e., the CC] are not engaged in those reforms in any way because we simply do not have the right to be engaged in those works. As a rule, it has not only a legal but also a political component; that is why we do not express an opinion in advance. This is due to the usual prohibition that the courts do not express an opinion on a matter that may be to become a subject of examination at the Constitutional Court in the future," Dilanyan said.
