Armenia
On February 22, the NA Speaker Mr. Hovik Abrahamyan held the next open
lesson. This time the senior high school students of Yerevan Nor Nork
community visited the National Assembly. Welcoming the school students
Mr. Abrahamyan said: "Your presence more activates the deputies' work.
I would like this kind of open lessons to become a tradition in the
parliament, irrespective of the fact who will be the NA Speaker in
future and who will be the deputies."
Afterwards the NA Speaker Mr. Hovik Abrahamyan presented the students
the structure, activity of RA legislative body, the powers reserved
by Constitution and the election procedure. Mr. Abrahamyan said
that everything was done to make the parliament transparent and
accessible for the people. Soon the 12 standing committees of the
National Assembly will regularly visit the provinces and communities
of the republic, meet with the local residents, get familiarized with
all problems, after which all the issues and concerns sounded after it
will be submitted to the NA Speaker. The Speaker of the Parliament also
touched upon the Armenian-Turkish protocols, once again documenting
that there were no speculating preconditions, and the thing was to
establish only diplomatic relations and open the borders.
Answering to the question of one of the students regarding the issue
of the Armenian Army, the NA Speaker Mr. Hovik Abrahamyan said that
our army was the most well-armed and strongest in the region, and
everything should be done that it remain like that.
The high school students, who visited the parliament, were concerned
with the problem of the lack of the educational programmes in the
Armenian TV air.
The Speaker of Parliament promised to propose the Minister of Education
to work out interesting educational programmes as a result of relevant
agreements. Mr. Abrahamyan joined the concern of one of the school
students that the monuments historical-cultural and architectural
value being out of the borders of Armenia are sometimes desecrated
and sold. He called on to consolidate, struggle with the whole nation
and condemn that fact.
The scope of the issues concerning the children was wide. The NA
Speaker gave comprehensive answers to them. The teachers thanked
the Speaker of the Parliament that he being so busy with work, found
time to meet with the school students and talk to them, advise them,
urge them to study well. In the teachers' opinion, such meetings
are more than necessary for the youth standing on the threshold of
the big life: and from today state way of thinking is formed. The NA
Speaker in his turn thanked the teachers, noting that even in the most
difficult conditions they have remained faithful to their vocation:
they have educated and brought up generations.
At the end of the meeting the school students and the teachers
accompanying them, as a memory of their meeting, were photographed
with the NA Speaker Mr. Hovik Abrahamyan.
