representative of the Prosperous Armenia Party faction Armen Melikyan
will leave for France to participate in the APF session. A. Melikyan
will join the delegation in France. Earlier not finding his name in
the list of the delegates, Styopa Safaryan, a parliamentarian from
the opposition Heritage Party, a member of the delegation applied to
