The adoption of a new constitution for Armenia remains on the agenda of the ruling “Civil Contract” Party.
elchi reports that Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan stated this in his address to the nation on the occasion of Constitution Day.
He emphasized the necessity of adapting the country’s constitution to the challenges of the time. According to Pashinyan, since Armenia gained independence, the organic link between the rule of law and the will of the people has been broken, and therefore the state has not been perceived as a tool for ensuring the security and freedom of citizens.
“The main importance of the constitution is not only in establishing the rule of law and constitutional order in the country, but also in ensuring the genetic and organic connection of this order with the founder of the state, the sovereign, that is, the people,” he said.
The Prime Minister noted that the executive branch and the ruling majority are actively working to rectify this situation with the help of the policy implemented since 2024, which won the support of the people in the parliamentary elections held on June 7, 2026.
