THE COALITION DOES NOT WANT TO WORK

Today the NA delegates failed the following Parliament session with joint
efforts. AT the very beginning of the work 29 delegates were registered from
the 131. It means that the 66 delegates necessary to secure quorum were not
even present in the Parliament hall. According to the law, in case of not
securing quorum, 3 more hours are given for the delegates to be able to come
to the NA and get registered. The deadline is 3:00 p.m., and at present 37
delegates have been registered.

Let us remind you 3 Parliamentary delegations are on different business
visits. The opposition has no problem of securing quorum, that’s why they
have not even arrived. Today they are gathered at different place to
organize a forum connected with eh April 12-13 events. By the way, from
oppositional delegates independent delegate Manouk Gasparyan, Napoleon
Azizyan who left the National Unity, and Agasi Arshakyan, member of the
National Unity has been registered.

According to the working agenda, today the question-answer of the government
members and the delegates was to take place. But if quorum is not secured
and the session does not take place, to question-answer will take place
either.

By the way, even if all the oppositional delegates decide to attend the
session, quorum will not be secured either. If we take into account that the
main part of the fraction `Democratic Delegate’ has been registered, it
becomes clear that only the coalition is responsible for the failure of the
Parliament’s work today.
