SARKISSIAN RESPONDS TO MPs
Support A1+!Today Armenia’s Prime Minister Serzh Sarkissian readily answered MPs' questions in the National Assembly.
OYP member Mher Shahgeldian noted that compared with other countries of the region demography is in a terrible plight in Armenia. The country is “getting older.”
The Armenian premier was especially well-disposed to Heritage party female-deputies and “delighted” them with his ready-made answers.
Nevertheless, Serzh Sarkissian got nerves before replying to Heritage member Zaruhi Postanjian’s question regarding political prisoners Zhirair Sefilian, Vardan Malkhassian and Armen Babajanian.
“Does a deputy have a right to raise questions at each four-day sitting?” Serzh Sarkissian wondered. After getting a positive answer, he answered the question.
Larissa Alaverdian referred to refugee problems. She remarked that bureaucratism is the main foe of the authorities. She wants to restore public confidence towards the authorities.
Serzh Sarkissian thanked Ms Alaverdian for her concern. He assured her that he would continue cooperation to tackle refugee problems.
