Narek Karapetyan, head of the Strong Armenia parliamentary faction, has responded on Facebook to Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan’s statement about the possibility of early parliamentary elections.
“We are ready. Just name the date. People must raise their voices against your endless concessions,” he wrote.
Agnessa Khamoyan, a lawmaker from the Hayastan parliamentary faction, was asked by a journalist whether she or other members of the faction could be persuaded to vote in favor of constitutional amendments. She replied that Pashinyan could not count on the support of the Hayastan alliance, Aravot reports.
“Even before Nikol Pashinyan’s statement, during the election campaign, during the elections, after the elections and in the National Assembly, we stated that we oppose the ‘Aliyev-style constitution.’ We have said in various speeches and interviews that he cannot count on the Hayastan alliance. We will not vote in favor,” she said.
