On June 10, the National Assembly started its regular four-day
session, with the secretary of the opposition Heritage faction, Zaruhi
Postanjyan addressing a question to NA Spokesman Hovik Abrahamyan.
"Has the Republican Party of Armenia considered in its board meeting
the issue of withdrawing the Armenian-Turkish Protocols from the NA
agenda? What is Serzh Sargsyan's stance on the matter as the stigma
(the protocols) is still in the Armenian parliament?" she said.
"I shall give the same answer. Serzh Sargsyan has not taken any
decision in this regard," said the NA speaker.
"Given Turkey's attitude towards our compatriots in Syria I urge that
the Republican Party hold a consultation and remove the disgraceful
protocols from the National Assembly," said the Heritage MP.
"Thank you for recommendations, let us decide on our steps ourselves,"
NA Vice Speaker Eduard Sharmazanov replied to Zaruhi Postanjyan.
RPA MP Artashes Geghamyan hurried to support his teammates saying in
his recent article, which had been translated into seven languages, he
said that 'the protocols are a trump card for Armenia against Turkey.
If the protocols are withdrawn from the NA agenda, it will be a great
gift to Azerbaijan and Turkey.'
Head of the Heritage faction Ruben Hakobyan said, in turn, that the
international opinion on the protocols had changed significantly,
and the documents should be quickly removed from the NA.
"I suggest convening parliamentary hearings on the issue and I request
that the parliamentary majority support our initiative," said Hakobyan.
"The majority opinion in the matter is quite clear," said Sharmazanov.
