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.
