Conflict In Armenia’S Parliament: Journalist Calls MP ‘Tramp’

CONFLICT IN ARMENIA’S PARLIAMENT: JOURNALIST CALLS MP ‘TRAMP’

18:53 ~U 18.06.13

Aram Manukyan, Secretary of the Armenian National Congress (ANC)
parliamentary group, and Vardan Aivazyan, an MP from the ruling
Republican Party of Armenia (RPA), had an argument in Armenia’s
parliament.

The reason is that Manukyan proposed setting up a committee to study
the revelations by the Control Chamber.

He proposed that Aivazyan participate in the committee’s work, saying
ironically that “he has nothing in common with mining business,
a perfectly clean and highly professional parliament member.”

Aivazyan’s response was so sharp that the parliament speaker urged
him to calm down.

Manukyan and Aivazyan went on to argue outside the assembly hall.

“I had an honor degree, but I worked as a loader. It was not
for nothing that I became a minister. Show me something stolen,”
Aivazyan said.

A journalist interfered in the argument and said that the hetq.am
website addressed the subject.

“What did they write? They took money and wrote,” Aivazyan said.

Aivasyan told the journalist she was “whimpering.”

“You are whimpering with all your family, you tramp,” the journalist
cried out.
