NA AUTUMN SESSION LAUNCHES

Sept 12 2006
Unlike all previous sessions the parliamentarians weren't in festive
mood and suits in the first sitting of the NA autumn session.
Everybody was tired and strained. It is clear that this is their last
session and the spring session will be held after parliamentarian
elections. Another six months and nowadays parliament will fight for
re-electing and the right to enter the NA building.
As usual, parliamentarians were carrying out a difficult work to form
the agenda. It was formed with difficulty, and parliamentarians who
had already voted for that agenda, left the hall at once. There were
some obvious changes, in particularly Victor Dallakian who had left
"Justice" faction took his seat not on the former place, next to
Stepan Demirchian but behind Arshak Sadoyan and in front of Artashes
Geghamian, that was the place where Aram Zaveni Sargsian must sit if
he didn't boycott the works of the parliament. Tatul Manaserian who
had also left "Justice" took his seat a little farther, on the row
for independent parliamentarians.
Gagik Tsarukian, Lyova Sargsian, Samvel Alexanian were absent,
but the opposition was present except Aram Zaveni Sargsian, Smbat
Ayvazian and Albert Bazeyan.
Though Tigran Torosian as the NA chairman opened the session for the
first time, but nobody congratulated him. Instead, there wasn't any
lack of disputes and disagreement. Hmayak Hovhannisian was constantly
complaining that the personnel hadn't given him all necessary drafts
and he tried to explain that omission by dismissals made by the NA
chairman. Aram Gaspari Sargsian proposed to invite the leaders of power
structures to get information about detections of frequent murders,
blasts and other crimes. Tigran Torosian admitted the proposal but he
didn't promised it would be in the near future as the authority was
very busy because of the visit of the chairman of Islamic Republic
of Iran and his delegation.
