A session at RA National Assembly yesterday discussed the first draft
constitution put forward by coalitional parties (Republican Party,
Armenian Revolutionary Federation and Rule of Law). But soon after the
talks launched, Tigran Torosian, vice-speaker of NA, had to announce
that the discussions will be postponed for a short while on request of
the authors of the draft. Deputies spent the "short while" discussing
amendments to the law on holidays and commemorative days. There was
a suggestion to include the day of Sumgait pogroms (Feb. 28) in the
list of commemorative days, which was accepted unanimously.
Soon after, the parliament returned to the draft constitution.
