Martun Grigoryan, an MP of the seventh convocation of the National Assembly (NA) of Armenia, will assume the parliamentary mandate of Artur Vanetsyan, now former leader of the opposition "With Honor" Faction of the NA.

"I don't see a problem in terms of leaving the faction. I will work with my friends—in the opposition arena," Grigoryan told Armenian News-NEWS.am.

The new lawmaker added that he has not yet decided which NA standing committee he will join.

As reported earlier, on June 21, Artur Vanetsyan had announced that he was giving up his parliamentary seat.
