YEREVAN, May 12. / ARKA /. Armenian Parliament Speaker Galust Sahakyan did not allow a group of parliament members to travel to Athens, Greece, to participate in a meeting of the Black Sea Economic Cooperation (BSEC).
Sahakyan confirmed this during an extraordinary session of parliament on Monday responding to a question from Aram Manukyan from the Armenian National Congress, who said the Armenian delegates were to deliver speeches at the meeting.
"The deputies’ travels should not hamper the work of Parliament. Parliament members can travel abroad, but only when their travels do not hamper the work of the legislator. This is our working style," he said.-0-
