Today RA Government began its current routine with the voting of
the draft laws discussed ON December 20. To note, all the bills were
passed, with the exception of the bill on the "RA Anthem".
NA Speaker Tigran Torosyan didn't put the bill into voting. He was
convinced that it wouldn't be endorsed as even the simplest bills
have so far been passed with 70 votes for.
The bill on the "RA anthem" is a serious one; both the oppositional
deputies, freelance deputies and the ARF Dashnaktsutyun are against
it. The National Assembly will vote the bill tomorrow with the
participation of the deputies who rarely press the buttons.
Nevertheless, Tigran Torosyan mentioned that we must bear full
responsibility for the anthem and we have not the right to step into
2007 without an anthem.
"Our Homeland" seems to be the anthem of the ARF Dashnaktsutyun but
it isn't so. "Our Homeland" has been the Armenian anthem since the
beginning of the century," Tigran Torosyan briefed the journalists
on the anthem today.
He also added that RA government has introduced the last version of
the anthem though he hasn't managed to get acquainted with it yet.
