ArmInfo. The Armenian-Turkish protocols should be discussed in the
Parliament only after relevant resolution by the Parliamentary
Commission for Foreign Relations, Armen Rustamyan, Head of the
Parliamentary Commission for Foreign Relations, representatives of
the ARFD Supreme Body, told media on Thursday.
He said the commission is expected to appeal to the speaker with
relevant request. "The Parliamentary Regulations allow submitting
an international agreement to the parliament for consideration also
without resolution by a special commission, however, in practice,
all the international agreements and treaties have been discussed by
the commission before submission to the parliament. Given the high
political and public response to the issue, the document needs full
discussion," Rustamyan said. He said the Commission will meet on
February 19 to consider the procedure of preliminary discussions of
the Armenian-Turkish Protocols. In addition, he said, ARFD faction is
expected to apply to the National Assembly for amending the legislation
to grant the parliament the right to introduce reservations to
international agreements and treaties alongside with the president.
