Opposition 'Armenia' Faction MP: Parliamentary speaker is making statements that pose danger to foreign policy

Surprisingly, some people took the demand for the resignation of Speaker of the National Assembly of Armenia Alen Simonyan very hard. The secretary of the opposition "Armenia" Faction, Artsvik Minasyan, said this at Monday’s traditional briefings in the National Assembly.

The MP is certain that in the international arena the parliamentary speaker is making statements that pose a danger to Armenia’s foreign policy. “Simonyan is making statements on Armenian prisoners of war, before which the government has responsibilities. The first thing that the government is obliged to do is to organize the return of the POWs to their homeland. However, the parliamentary speaker is making a statement that not only causes mental pain and suffering, but also causes harm to our country’s defensibility. This might even be organized by the top political leadership,” Minasyan clarified.

According to the opposition MP, the recent brawl in parliament clearly showed that the head of the legislature isn’t following and doesn’t attach importance to observance of the established procedure.


Emil Lazarian: “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
