Republican Party of Armenia (HHK) MP Arakel Movsisyan, who during
Heritage Party MP Armen Martirosyan's speech in parliament yesterday
called him an "ass" (or an "animal"), doesn't recall the incident.
"Such a thing happened? I don't remember," he told local daily
Joghovurd.
To the journalist's comment that the video of him saying this has been
uploaded online, the MP said, "Well, I got angry, what should I do?
It's not kindergarten after all."
Explaining what it was in the opposition MP's speech that made him
angry, Movsisyan said, "He thinks he's above the rest. He's waiting
for everyone to be quiet so he can speak. He's treats us all like
children. And that's why I got angry."
Recall, people were speaking while Martirosyan was presenting a bill
in Armenia's National Assembly on Wednesday. As a result, Martirosyan
stopped speaking and waited for the room to quiet down. Apparently, the
HHK MP wasn't too pleased about that as from his seat in the back row,
he shouted, "I haven't come to listen to a speech by an ass like you!"
"You're the ass! What kind of talk is that?" retorted Martirosyan
from the podium.
Note: Arakel Movsisyan's name was incorrectly stated as "Harutyun
Arakelyan" in the original piece published on Nov. 30.
