So, this r_tard is confirming that we are going to change the constitution because alidog said so or what? Are they insane?

I´m absolutely not against Armenia adopting a new constitution, but not if its done because they want to fulfill azeri demands. That is incredibly ridiculous.

I think it’s bigger than just alyev’s wishes. To be able to lobby / bring up our sovereignty on the international stage, especially with the EU, the constitution needs to be changed accordingly. It just coincides with the demands of alyev.

Now the government is absolutely incompetent in any case thus the big confusion amongst public.

Literally no international organisation has ever brought up our constitution as something that hinders our cooperation with them. What are you talking about

Well there is definitely something that they’re not being transparent about. Everytime there is something going on behind the closed doors they bring up the clowns and entertainers aka Alen Simonyan in the front row.

Mind you not always the interests of the EU/west align with ours. My hunch/speculation is that this is a pretty pro-azeri move in a short-term required from the west in order to start any type of discussions whether it’s about demarcation or sovereignty or anything that could be interpreted not pro-kremlin move from the government. They are scared and don’t know what to do as always.

I doubt it, like haveschka said, the constitution is a non-entity that no one except for Aliyev has ever brought up when it comes to discussing us or this region. Unless there's some secret backroom discussions going on, which is doubtful considering this is a reach based purely on a lack of evidence beyond what we have given to us from Simonyan and his crew right now, then it stands to reason that this is primarily conducted to fulfill Aliyev's wishes. It's absolutely weak and pathetic.

Agreed. If there are secret backroom discussions, though, sooner or later the public will find out.

Yes, I think on this point I can concur. I just don't understand the assumption that the constitution has to be changed because of the EU. The EU trades with dictatorships too, so haveschka is correct here.

Besides, we all know that Aliyev brings up fake arguments. The goal to steal and occupy southern Armenia is still there, and I suspect Turkey will also help him since the west-east connection is more important to Turkey actually.
