On January 31, 2013 HCA Vanadzor received the ruling of the Administrative Court of Appeals over the current case.
The RA Administrative Court of Appeals decided to refuse the submitted appeal and left into force the decision taken by the RA Administrative Court. Justifications underlay the decision of the Court, according to which, the judicial oversight in relation to signing of international agreements by the RA President is implemented by the RA Constitutional Court, while, “The RA President’s power directed at concluding international agreements of crucial significance to the RA is subject to counterbalance by the RA National Assembly, exercising legislative power in the Republic of Armenia.”
The importance of international agreements aimed at counterbalancing the President’s power under the legislative authority of the Republic of Armenia by the National Assembly. “
