ArmInfo. 'ARF Dashnaktsutyun party faction suggested to extend the
authorities of the parliamentary opposition far before the present
amendments, however, no one listened to us then', vice speaker of RA
Parliament, member of ARF Dashnaktsutyun party faction Hrayr Karapetyan
said today in "Tesaket" club.
He called the present amendments to the Parliament Regulations, being
discussed in NA, late and connected them with PACE April Resolution
on Armenia.
H. Karapetyan said that three permanent commissions will be created
in the Parliament, one of which will be headed by the opposition
representative, as the governing forces offer.
'There is one oppositional party in our Parliament which,
unfortunately, consists of seven people. I am yet unaware of
their final answer, some people say that they refuse of what they
are offered', MP said. 'We were the authorities' integral part
since 1998, however, we were not a majority, and many proposals
we made were not accepted. We have repeatedly raised this issue,
and now we are going to come out with new proposals for extension
of the opposition's authorities', the vice speaker said. He also
said that all the political forces in the country should understand
that they may always turn out to be in a role of the opposition, so,
legislative strengthening of authorities of the opposition will make
the political field more civilized and the election campaign less
rigorous and personified.
'It is not a tragedy that a political force becomes an opposition. When
I was in the opposition, I felt more free. There are advantages in it,
as you may say what you want>, Karapetyan said.
