ArmInfo. "The Armenian authorities boycott Heritage oppositional
party", Chairman of Heritage party Board, Armenian parliamentarian
Armen Martirosyan said at today’s parliamentary briefings.
According to him, this is testified by the fact that Zaruhi Postanjyan
was first deprived of the opportunity to take part in PACE work, and
now Larisa Alaverdyan is hindered to take part in the work of OSCE PA.
In her turn, secretary of Heritage faction, member of the substitutive
staff of the Armenian delegation to OSCE PA Larisa Alaverdyan said she
was informally warned that she cannot take part in OSCE PA session,
to be held in the midst of February, because of insufficient funds. "I
am aware that the Azerbaijani delegation to OSCE PA intends to make
a corresponding statement on the Karabakh conflict, and I am sorry
I was deprived of participation in the Assembly session at such an
important moment", the MP emphasized.
Another participant in the briefing from Orinats Yerkir party
faction, representative of the Armenian delegation to PACE PA Khachik
Harutyunyan said he has been among the delegation for two years and
he does not remember a case for the Armenian delegation not to raise
the issues concerning Armenia.
In her turn, member of Prosperous Armenia party faction Naira Zohrabyan
just advised his counterparts to read the law On PACE PA Regulations,
according to which member of the substitutive staff is entitled to
take part in the session only in case if someone is absent in the
main staff.
