NA Speaker: “Do not exclude anything!”
Speaker of the Armenian National Assembly Hovik Abrahamyan is expected to hand in his resignation during the NA sitting on November 14. Abrahamyan shared the information with journalists after yesterday's meeting of the executive body of the ruling Republican Party (HHK).
Abrahamyan said he was going to head the HHK headquarters during the upcoming elections.
Asked who would replace him as the NA speaker, Abrahamyan said the issue had not been discussed by the party. He also refuted rumours about the resignation of Deputy Prime Minister Armen Gevorgyan, though he said, "Do not exclude anything in this life."
David Harutyunyan, Chairman of the Parliamentary Committee on State and Legal Affairs, is said to assume the office of NA Speaker while ex-mayor Gagik Beglaryan is expected to become Deputy Premier.
