The National Assembly of the Republic of Armenia began its sitting
with the national anthem on September 8. A hundred and seven MPs were
present at the sitting. NA Speaker Tigran Torossian dispelled the hopes
of the presentees who were waiting for the Speaker’s resignation. As
usual, Tigran Torossian presented the agenda of the four-day session
and answered deputies’ questions.

Newly elected MP Hovik Abrahamian and Head of the Republican Party
of Armenia (HHK) Karen Karapetian didn’t attend today’s sitting. HHK
MPs declined to comment on the absentees.

Tigran Torossian didn’t even congratulate the five newly-elected MPs.

Reminder: two days ago the HHK executive body found Tigran Torossian’s
tenure inexpedient and decided to nominate Hovik Abrahamian for
the post.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
