The My Step Alliance ended its closed session, and head of the My Step parliamentary faction Lilit Makunts told journalists about the issues that were discussed during the session.

“There were initially a couple of issues on the faction’s agenda. As I had mentioned a couple of days ago, one of the issues was the creation of investigative committees. Of course, the faction also considered the statement by the Citizen’s Decision Party. The faction didn’t express any position, but there were different opinions.”

Makunts informed that Ararat Mirzoyan was attending the discussion, and since the Citizen’s Decision Party has addressed the parliamentary speaker with the demand to deprive Gagik Tsarukyan of his parliamentary mandate, Ararat Mirzoyan will make an additional statement.

“The incident linked to MP Sergey Bagratyan of the Prosperous Armenia Party was also touched upon. There were concerns that there have been frequent interpersonal incidents that are a matter of concern, but at this moment, we don’t believe there is a political subtext. Time will show.”

MP Sisak Gabrielyan informed that the National Assembly might set up an ethics committee upon popular demand, but urged journalists to wait for Sergey Bagratyan to give clarifications. Makunts also said an ethics committee might be set up.


Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
