 The Constitutional Court's ruling proved Armenia's higher courts lack independence. Liparit Drmeyan

In my view and understanding, the highest courts of any country in the world, including those of Armenia, do not operate in complete isolation. To a certain extent, all supreme courts are subject to the influence of political parties, the ruling force, and especially the government. Liparit Drmeyan, a member of the "Wings of Unity" party, said this during an appearance on Hairenik Media.


"The fact that Armenia's Constitutional Court has never annulled election results is a clear example of this situation. Unfortunately, the Constitutional Court's latest decision, issued on June 7, once again confirmed this problem. Armenia's higher courts are not independent, particularly when it comes to elections and crucial issues concerning election results," he said.
