Extraordinary parliamentary session initiated by opposition forces did not take place

YEREVAN, JUNE 3, ARMENPRESS. A quorum was not provided again by 20:00 to start the extraordinary session of the National Assembly convened on the initiative of the opposition deputies due to the absence of MPs.

ARMENPRESS reports the President of the National Assembly Alen Simonyan mentioned that 4 hours have passed, but in fact there are no MPs in the hall, including the opposition MPs.  "We can state that the session did not take place," Simonyan said.

33 MPs were registered for the sitting scheduled for 16:00. The MPs of the "Civil Contract" faction did not come to the sitting.
