KAREN DEMIRCHYAN COULD TURN 70 TODAY

Politics

National Assembly session didn’t take place today because a quorum wasn’t achieved – only 22 MPs were present.

First of all they paused to remember and honor the former Speaker of the National Assembly Karen Demirchyan, the victim of 27 October terrorist action. Today he could turn 70. Later a ceremony of commemoration took place at the memorial of terrorist action victims.

Strong willing by parliamentarians to attend the ceremony constitutes a reason of their absence at the session. In fact, they decided not to work today to have an opportunity to pay respect to their former speaker.
