YEREVAN. – Armenia’s National Assembly (NA) delegation to the
Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) will head for
Strasbourg, France, on Sunday to attend PACE’s fall session,
Zhoghovurd daily reports.

`Moreover, the delegation will leave with the whole team – also
including the reserve members – [but] except for the [Prosperous Armenia
Party] PAP MPs.

As Zhoghovurd’s well-informed sources notified, during the PAP [NA]
Faction session it was decided that [PAP MPs, and aforesaid delegation
members] Naira Zohrabyan and Vahe Hovhannisyan will not go to
Strasbourg, so as to attend the NA session to commence on Monday
[October 1] because on that day will be discussed the [Prosecutor
General’s] petition to strip [The Civilitas Foundation founder, former
FM, and currently] PAP MP Vartan Oskanian of his [parliamentary]
immunity.

The PAP MPs will head [to Strasbourg] once Oskanian’s matter is
examined,’ Zhoghovurd writes.
