RPA'S SAMVEL NIKOYAN "BOYCOTTS" PARLIAMENT MEETINGS - PAPER
PanARMENIAN.Net - According to Zhoghovurd daily, member of the ruling
Republican Party of Armenia (RPA) Samvel Nikoyan takes highly passive
participation in the work of the parliament, always leaving right
after registration or a vote.
Rumors go that Nikoyan, who used to occupy the parliament speaker's
post for 6 months, deems a common MP position to be beneath his
dignity, the paper said.
"There's some truth in the report of me taking part in voting only;
however, I follow the work of parliament from my office," Nikoyan
told Zhoghovurd.
The MP further pledged to more actively participate in parliamentary
debates.
