YEREVAN. - During last session of the ruling Republican Party
of Armenia Supreme Body (RPA SB), President and RPA leader Serzh
Sargsyan spoke very harshly with National Assembly (NA) Speaker Hovik
Abrahamyan, Zhoghovurd daily reports.
"When the matter of Sargsyan's inauguration on April 9 was discussed,
the NA speaker assured that PAP [that is, Prosperous Armenia Party]
Chairman Gagik Tsarukyan definitely will attend the [NA special]
session [devoted to the swearing-in ceremony]. But Sargsyan interrupted
Abrahamyan in a strict tone noting that, in recent times, Abrahamyan
is unable to give clear answers to matters concerning his in-law,
Tsarukyan.
In an interview with Zhoghovurd, RPA NA Faction leader, RPA SB member
Galust Sahakyan noted that, as an NA MP, the PAP leader is obligated
to attend the inauguration.
Tsarukyan's spokeswoman, Iveta Tonoyan, on the other hand, said:
'Tsarukyan was not in the country, and I have not yet had the
opportunity to discuss with him his plans,'" Zhoghovurd writes.
