The opposition Prosperous Armenia Party’s (PAP) parliamentary faction has initiated a working discussion at the Armenian parliament, during which the existing problems in the country’s border communities will be discussed.

According to PAP secretary Arman Abovyan, members of the government and MPs from the ruling My Step bloc have been invited to the discussion, but nobody has showed up.

“I hope that the ruling force will come and take part in this important discussion,” he said.

Abovyan also said that during the discussion a phone call will be held with heads of the border communities to have better understanding of the situation.

Incidentally, opposition Bright Armenia faction is also taking part in the discussion.

“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
