Member of Parliament, Lieutenant-General Arthur Aghabekyan today
refused from the position of the Chairman of the NA Standing
Committee on Defense, National Security and Interior Affairs. He
submitted the second resignation today despite the decision of the
Armenian Revolutionary Federation to keep the chairmanship of the
two Standing Committees of the National Assembly as parliamentary
opposition. This does not mean that Arthur Aghabekyan did not obey
the political decision of the party. He decided so out of personal
reasons and the ARF Supreme Body accepted the decision.
Chairman of the Standing Committee on Foreign Relations Armen
Rustamyan said Arthur Aghabekyan had long wished to refuse from the
position. "It's a personal affair and has nothing to do with the
decision of the Party.
Arthur Aghabekyan fully supports the political position of the Party."
It's worth mentioning, that the April 28th meeting of the Deputies
with Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian served as a driving force
for Arthur Aghabekyan's decision. The latter was disappointed with
the discussions on the Armenian-Turkish relations.
Whatever, Dashnaktsutyun will keep the chairmanship of the Standing
Committee on Defense, National Security and Interior Affairs. Head of
the Dashnaktsutyun faction Vahan Hovhannisyan does not know, however,
who is going to head the committee.
Spokesman for the Republican Party of Armenia Edward Sharmazanov told
"Radiolur" the trilateral coalition has not yet decided how to fill
the vacancies created by the withdrawal of the Armenian Revolutionary
Federation from the political coalition.
