NA GROUPS AND FACTIONS ESTIMATE PARLIAMENT'S TWO-YEAR ACTIVITY
YEREVAN, MAY 27, NOYAN TAPAN. "In legislative respect I estimate
parliament's activity very positively as we have no promise or project
we haven't fulfilled. In political respect I estimate parliament's
activity negatively," Galust Sahakian, Head of the NA RPA faction,
declared during the May 27 press briefing while summarizing the
results of the spring session and parliament's 2-year activity. In
case of giving marks by a 5-point scale, the MP, who is a pedagogue by
speciality, on the whole, would give a "satisfactory" mark to
parliament's activity. Levon Mkrtchian, Head of the ARF faction, would
estimate parliament's activity as "satisfactory" as the parliament has
fulfilled its functions, in essence, providing the legislative field,
but the opposition's boycott had a great impact on the parliament also
influencing the quality of adopted documents and general atmosphere.
Samvel Balasanian, Head of the Orinats Yerkir (Country of Law)
faction, would give a "good" mark to parliament's activity. If party
Chairman Artur Baghdasarian weren't NA Speaker, the MP might even give
an "excellent" mark. According to him, he would like the parliament's
activity to be not 30% but much higher. Rafik Petrosian, member of the
National Deputy MP group, RPA member, would give a mark of "3.5"
points to parliament's activity. 1.5 points lacking for an "excellent"
mark refer to the fact that not all MPs are engaged in legislative
activity, including the opposition that have been boycotting
parliament's work for nearly 1.5 years, and the burden of fulfilling
their obligations also falls on nearly 30% of MPs carrying out
legislative activity. In the opinion of Viktor Dallakian, Secretary of
the Ardarutiun (Justice) faction, he could give an "excellent" mark to
MP Arshak Sadoyan and "satisfactory" to the rest of MPs, modestly
including himself, too.
