The constitution has been changed three times over the past 25 years. If the first two constitutions had some structural similarity, the last one is embodiment of stupidity, vanity and foolishness,” Leader of the Union for National Self-Determination (AIM) Paruyr Hayrikyan said on July 4. Azat Arshakyan, a former deputy of the Supreme Council, said it was a mistake not to form a constituent assembly [for drafting or adopting a constitution]. “The constitution is a package of laws aimed at the future. In this sense, the recent constitution dramatically reduces the sovereignty and fullness of the Armenian state. The state is incomplete. This constitution limits the most important component of life - competition," he said.
