Parliamentary committee summons FM for closed discussion on Artsakh

YEREVAN, MARCH 14, ARMENPRESS. The foreign relations committee of the Armenian parliament will hold a closed discussion with foreign minister Zohrab Mnatsakanyan, Lusavor Hayastan (Luminous Armenia) opposition party leader Edmon Marukyan told reporters when asked if he is in favor of launching parliamentary hearings regarding the Artsakh issue settlement.

“The foreign minister will participate in a closed discussion on March 15 in the parliamentary foreign relations committee. If we want the conversation to be unrestricted it is very important for such delicate issues to be discussed in a closed format. But parliamentary hearings are another tool. Perhaps one day we will also do a parliamentary hearing,” Marukyan said.
