YEREVAN. – The parliamentary seat of now former National Assembly (NA) Speaker Hovik Abrahamyan will be allocated to ex-MP Lernik Aleksanyan, who is next in the proportional election list of the ruling Republican Party of Armenia (RPA).   

Aleksanyan told Armenian News-NEWS.am that he will not petition for a request to give up the parliamentary mandate and, apparently, he will become a deputy. 

To the question as to whether he is happy to start working in the legislative body again, he responded:

“Naturally. I’m next in the list, and if someone [in the list] goes to the executive body, I will become an MP. It wasn’t something new; the course was such. Becoming a deputy enables to show [self] more actively for a man who wants to work. If the party finds that I should be an MP, I will work [as an MP].”

Lernik Aleksanyan is 113th in the RPA proportional list, and he was an NA deputy from 1998 to 2012.

President Serzh Sargsyan on Sunday appointed Hovik Abrahamyan as Prime Minister of Armenia.
