Manipulative title: RFE/RL’s Armenian Service spreads misinformation

The European Court did not reject the request of Hrayr Tovmasyan և 3 members to terminate the constitutional amendments. The article published on the Azatutyun website does not present the whole situation, it is not mentioned that a deadline has been set for the sides. It should be noted that the lawsuit of the President of the Constitutional Court and three judges is under consideration in the European Court of Human Rights. Moreover, Siranush Sahakyan, the applicants’ representative at the ECtHR, clarified that the European Court, having considered the nature of the violations and the importance of the issues raised, had undertaken measures to examine the case immediately. The court set August 28 as the deadline for the sides to present their position.
