YEREVAN. – Parliamentary faction of the opposition Prosperous Armenia Party (PAP) will come up with two initiatives Wednesday. PAP MP Iveta Tonoyan mentioned this in a conversation with journalists in the National Assembly.

"First of all, we will come up with an initiative to create an inquiry committee to investigate the circumstances of the activities toward coronavirus prevention, elimination of its consequences. And secondly, we will apply to the Constitutional Court to challenge the legality of the decision regarding the organization of rallies during a state of emergency.

We call on our colleagues of [the opposition] Bright Armenia [Party parliamentary faction] to join this process so that we have enough signatures—both to set up an inquiry committee and to apply to the Constitutional Court," she added.

Tonoyan said they had not carried out any protests. "It's just that as a result of unleashing political persecution against [PAP leader, MP, and business tycoon] Gagik Tsarukyan, our supporters, ordinary citizens have spontaneously gathered," she added.
