YEREVAN, DECEMBER 23, ARMENPRESS. The opposition Hayastan and Pativ Unem factions of the Armenian parliament say they have rejected Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan’s offer to hold a closed meeting with him.

In a statement, the two opposition blocs said that Speaker Alen Simonyan relayed PM Pashinyan’s offer.

“[We] notified that [we] will participate in the meeting only in open, equal conditions accountable before the people – which was rejected – therefore, we reiterate our stance that closed meetings are inexpedient,” the opposition factions said in a joint statement.
