07:38 pm | Today | Politics
Armenia's National Assembly opened its spring session on Monday, with
Prosperous Armenia party (BHK) leader Gagik Tsaroukyan appearing at
the National Assembly for the first time since last May's
parliamentary elections. The appearance of Mr Tsarukyan caused a
sensation among legislators and journalists.
BHK Secretary Naira Zohrabyan was surprised to witness the excitement
caused by BHK leader's arrival.
"On the other hand, I am glad to see that everyone is interested in Mr
Tsarukyan. I see nothing extraordinary in this. Mr Tsarukyan will
regularly attend NA sittings. He was absent from the previous sittings
for good reasons; he was holding important meetings," said the BHK
Secretary.
Gagik Tsarukyan left the NA hall with Galust Sahakyan, head of the
Republican party faction, 20 minutes later.
The first day of the National Assembly session brought a number of
surprises with it.
Among the MPs who came to the National Assembly was also Stepan
Demirtchyan, Leader of the People's Party of Armenia (HZhK) who did
not attend NA sittings over long-term health problems. Mr Demirtchyan
reiterated once again that his party would not quit the opposition
Armenian National Congress (HAK).
"HZhK and other forces affiliated with the opposition alliance should
try to make HAK's activity more effective. HZhK has always actively
participated in the presidential elections, and the candidates
supported by our party have won the elections. This time, we are not
participating in the election," said Mr Demirtchyan.
