Armen Sarkissian s applying to the Constitutional Court is a mere eyewash - Varuzhan Avetikyan
Managing partner at TK & Partners CJSC Varuzhan Avetikyan believes Armenian President Armen Sarkissian s decision to apply to the Constitutional Court of Armenia to determine the constitutionality of the 2017 law “On the Status of Military Service and Servicemen” is a mere eyewash. If you have not got this thus far, let me say everything is clear. Armen Sarkissian in fact relieved Onik Gasparyan of his duties as Chief of the General Staff of the Armenian Armed Forces Onik Gasparyan. Turning to the Court to determine the compliance of the 2017 law “On the Status of Military Service and Servicemen” with the Constitution is a mere eyewash, said Avetikyan.
