Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan reiterated that the country needs a new constitution.

Axar.az informs, citing Armenpress, "That reality is this: The Republic of Armenia tells its citizens that the homeland and the state are no longer separate. Unlike the previous period of our millennia-long history, our message today must be clear. And that message must be articulated in a new Constitution adopted through the free will of the Armenian people. That Constitution must say: citizen of the Republic of Armenia, you are the state, you are the Republic of Armenia," Pashinyan said at the festive event held on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the Armenian Constitution.

He argued that resistance to the state has become a reflex and that this mindset must be overcome. Pashinyan said many Armenians continue to perceive the legal system established in the country over the past 35 years as something imposed on them, rather than a framework created by their own will for governing life in Armenia.
