    Zaruhi Postanjyan. `They are not graspers of the chance'

    October 19 2013

    No matter how the members of the Standing Committee of NA Foreign
    Affairs and Deputy Foreign Minister Shavarsh Kocharyan asked Zaruhi
    Postanjyan to withdraw her draft law and wait for a better time or to
    try to do another way that her draft law on `Recognition of Nagorno
    Karabakh Republic' not to get voted, she remained steadfast. As a
    result, the Committee in the ratio of three votes pro and two votes
    cons will present this draft law with negative conclusion to the next
    session. Interestingly, one of the voters voting `con' was de jure
    member of the `Heritage' party Alexander Arzumanyan, the other was the
    Republican Party member Hamlet Harutyunyan who demonstratively left
    the session, saying that he will not participate in the discussion of
    the issue presented by Zaruhi Postanjyan, but in the end he came and
    voted `con'. Those voting `pro' were Nikol Pashinyan from the ANC,
    Tevan Poghosyan from `Heritage' and Armen Rustamyan from ARF. The
    other members present at the session, Republican Samvel Farmanyan,
    Razmik Markosyan, Shirak Torosyan, `Rule of Law' party member Khachik
    Harutyunyan and independent MP Edmon Marukyan did not participate in
    the voting. There should be at least five `pros' for the draft law to
    be endorsed. After the session, to our questions whether Ms.
    Postanjyan expected such a result, she said that she expected for
    better, she thought that, eventually, their conscience will all of a
    sudden awaken, but, unfortunately, so far `the conscience is with the
    devil, it does not belong to them'. Ms. Postanjyan unequivocally
    opposed the opinions repeatedly voiced during the session that, now,
    it is not the convenient moment to recognize NKR. `You heard how many
    times they said that we need to grasp the chance, but they were also
    saying that there were moments that they missed, they are not graspers
    of the chance, and again they are going to miss the chance. Today,
    also, they are going to miss the chance with their participation.' The
    details of the discussion will be available a bit later.
