"Have you ever come across cases when the Armenians of the Diaspora
suffered losses. Surely, not. Just on the contrary", RA NA Speaker
Tigran Torosyan comforted all those who feared the Armenian troops’
stay in Iraq.
NA Speaker assumes that we cannot live isolated from the outer world;
we must participate in the international process and have our share.
Galoust Sahakyan, leader of Republican Party, finds the assistance
of the Armenian troops "a kind step".
But he is against open discussion of the issue as in his words;
certain things mustn’t be transparent taking into account the security
of the state.
To note, "Justice" and ARF Dashnaktsutyun are against prolonging the
term of the Armenian peacekeepers’ mission in Iraq for another year.
Summing up the results of the discussion, Defense Minister Serge
Sargsyan said that there were only two and a half cons.
By saying two and a half cons Mr. Sargsyan meant Viktor Dallakyan
who didn’t say definitely in his speech whether he was for or against
the decision. In Mr. Sargsyan’s opinion, Viktor Dallakyan made such
a speech so that no one would say anything against him 100 years later.
In answer to Serge Sargsyan’s remark, Mr. Dallakyan only said,
"10 minutes are not enough to understand what I mean".
