Many issues in Armenia are connected with the establishment of independent legal system in RA," RA Ombudsman Armen Harutyunyan specified in his 2008 Report on Human Rights Protection. "Despite the reforms implemented, RA legal system has no tendency for development. Recent surveys registered a low level of trust toward legal system among RA citizens."

"We need time to promote and strengthen the democracy in Armenia. Development of legal system will be possible only if there's a strong determination to establish democracy in the country," the Ombudsman emphasized.
