According to journalists, the Parliament of Armenia is becoming
a caricature. Today, it again lacked quorum and the MPs voted for
them and for their colleagues. The Parliament's leadership did not
pay attention to the opposition MP Larisa Alaverdyan's complaints in
this connection.
Today was the last session of this convocation. The newly-appointed
Speaker is reluctant to end it ignominiously. One "ignominious" step
has already been done - the law on the limitation of cash operations
failed. But there are a bunch of other laws which need to be adopted.
No time for formality. You can re-vote, vote for others and provoke.
What and whom the parliament's leadership is proving? Why do they
need these childish games? It is evident that the current convocation
has exhausted in terms of time and morality. In a couple of months,
it will be a shame to remember the current level of MPs.
Apparently, Samvel Nikoyan wants to prove that he managed to adopt
many laws during his short tenure and cooperated very well with the
government. But, honestly, this is not the best election argument. It
would be better to acknowledge your mistakes and apologize. Maybe,
you will be forgiven.
