PARLIAMENTARY MAJORITY CANNOT SECURE NA NORMAL WORK, LEADER OF
“PEOPLE’S DEPUTY” FACTION STATES
YEREVAN, APRIL 14, NOYAN TAPAN. Failure of the regular four-day
sessions of the Parliament showed that the political majority cannot
organize work of the National Assembly in proper way. Karen
Karapetian, the leader of the NA “People’s Deputy” MPs’ faction made
such a statement during the April 14 interview with journalists. “This
style of work is unacceptable for us. There is a political majority
which is obliged to secure normal work of the National Assembly. This
is said for many times, and I do not consider superfluous to repeat it
once more,” the leader of the faction mentioned. According to him, it
became clear still on the previous day that the parliamentary majority
would not be able to secure quorum. Concerning the reasonings that MPs
are on missions, then those, according to Karapetian, are fictitious:
“Send as many people to missions as not to damage work of the
Parliament.” Mentioning that political forces occupying opposing or
neutral position also have their part of guilt in the issue of such a
concern to work of the Parliament, Karen Karapetian emphasized once
more that those parties which have taken the responsibility are
obliged to carry out organization of the work. “I consider impossible
to continue in this way. I propose either to call to order everybody
or we do not need such a NA. We give nice promises to people from
election to election, and they must be given power of law. Other
elections will be tomorrow, and we all will turn to electors,” the
leader of the “People’s Deputy” faction mentioned.
