Yes, there are members of the My Step faction who are infected with the coronavirus. As far as the parliament’s work is concerned, we are doing our best to make sure this doesn’t obstruct our work. This is what head of the My Step faction of the National Assembly of Armenia Lilit Makunts told reporters today.

When told that those deputies had participated in the recent sessions and votes in parliament, Makunts said the following: “Based on my information, there is still one confirmed case, and the other cases haven’t been confirmed yet. I don’t know if they will be confirmed or not. If we hypothetically say that the cases will be confirmed, this can in no way obstruct the work of the parliament. As a matter of fact, all of those deputies are asymptomatic.”

Makunts stated that the other MPs haven’t tested for COVID-19, but will be tested, if instructed.
