February 19, Armenian Revolutionary Federation Dashnaksutyun (ARFD)
plans to hold a preliminary discussion on Armenia-Turkey Protocols
in the RA NA Foreign Affairs Committee.
Committee Chairman Armen Rustamyan told reporters that the ARFD will
propose RA NA Speaker Hovik Abrahamyan not to put the issue on the
agenda until the Committee gives its opinion.
According to Rustamyan, it will allow the in-depth discussion of the
Protocols which will prevent their adoption as they are.
Responding to NEWS.am’s remark that the ruling coalition members
constitute majority in the Committee and can, if they wish, quickly
give a positive opinion, the ARFD member said: "I do not think it
will be a quick conclusion."
The Protocols were already sent to the RA Parliament and on a point
of order included on the NA agenda, as well as of the four-day session.
