ACCORDING TO GALUST SAHAKIAN, "PARLIAMENTARY HOUR" PROGRAM TURNED INTO
"MONOLOGUE OF ONE PERSON"
YEREVAN, MARCH 24, NOYAN TAPAN. The proposal of Alexan Haroutiunian,
Chairman of the Council of Public TV and Radio Company, on liquidation
of the "Parliamentary Week" program covering the activity of RA
National Assembly is, in fact, aimed at liquidation of the
three-minute speeches of the Ardarutiun (Justice) and National Unity
factions. Artashes Geghamian, head of RA NA National Unity faction,
expressed such an opinion at the March 24 press briefing. As another
reason he pointed to the "jealousy" of the coalition partners to the
Orinats Yerkir party. Hrayr Karapetian, Secretary of ARF faction,
considers a serious omission the circumstance that it's mainly the
meetings and speeches of NA Speaker that are covered during the
"Parliamentary Hour" program. Agreeing to the inevitability of
covering the opinions of the parliamentary Speaker and his party,
Karapetian at the same time considers that the principle of equality
should be preserved and the opinions of another parties on the same
issues should be also presented. Galust Sahakian, head of the RPA
faction, mentioned that recently the "Parliamentary Hour" program has
turned into a "monologue of one person". Sahakian considers Alexan
Haroutiunian's proposal acceptable but he thinks that the decision
about it should be made by the parliament of next convocation.
