The statement also said: .

The Bright Armenia believes that the prime minister deliberately put  a label on the representatives of the Bright Armenia party in order  to justify the “hooligan behavior of the ruling faction”. Moreover,  representatives of the faction call everyone who criticizes them as  enemies of the people and the state, and the vendetta against them is  already “legalized”. The incident, according to the Party, speaks of  intolerance of the ruling faction. The end result of such a policy of  denial of one’s own mistakes will lead to the establishment of  authoritarianism in the country.

Other members of parliament were involved in the  assault. Clarification of relations with the participation of  parliamentarians continued during the announced break, after which  the conflicting parties finally dispersed.
