During an interview, leader of the Armenian Republican Party National Assembly faction Galust Sahakyan said that in his opinion, the MP that leaves the faction after being elected from the proportional list must drop his mandate. According to him, there is a need to pass a law on that.
“I am in favor of that, but we need to put that issue up for discussion during the next National Assembly session,” said Galust Sahakyan.
This is the first time in the history of the Armenian parliament when Galust Sahakyan and the parliamentary opposition, in particular the “Justice” alliance, actually agree on the same thing.
