ARMENIAN MINISTER DERIDES OPPOSITION MPS, REPRIMANDED BY PARLIAMENT SPEAKER
20:01 02.10.13
Speaking in Parliament on Wednesday, Armenia's Minister of Education
and Science Armen Ashotyan ironically mentioned the fact that only
three MPs voted for the president-backed candidate Gevorg Kostanyan's
appointment as Armenia's Prosecutor General, whereas many of the
opposition MPs had previously objected to his candidacy.
"During the question hour, one of the MPs video recorded Armenia's
Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan," Ashotyan said, hinting at Nikol
Pashinyan, an Armenian National Congress (ANC) group member, who
video recorded his ballot paper on Tuesday to prove his words.
Parliament Speaker Hovik Abarahamyan reprimanded Minister Ashotyan.
"Some people go beyond tact bounds. I will not allow anyone to break
the law," he said.
