" NA SPEAKER SOLVEDTHE ISSUE OF HIS LEGITIMACY"

Politics

“The Speaker of Armenia's National Assembly invited the U.S. experts simply to solve the issue of his legitimacy,” Republic Party member Suren Abrahamian told A1+. Note, Suren Abrahamian is involved in the public committee looking into the March 1 events.

Suren Abrahamian has met with the U.S. experts. He says the meeting was merely cognitive and was a “demonstration of good will.” Asked about the engagement of the Armenian National Congress in the fact-finding mission, Suren Abrahamian said: “It depends on the mission’s format.”

“The fact-finding mission should act by law /and not execute NA decisions or Presidential decrees/, control the pre-trial body otherwise everything will be but a farce,” said Abrahamian.

In general, Suren Abrahamian thinks the fact-finding mission was to be set up earlier if they really wanted to reveal the reality.

“Our committee has nothing to do with the NA ad hoc Committee on the March 1 unrest. The Pan-National Movement expressed distrust towards the ad hoc Committee and its format just from the very beginning,” added Mr. Abrahamian.
