YEREVAN. – Hraparak daily of the Republic of Armenia (RA) writes: One of the representatives of the Armenian community of the United States, who is in quite close contact with the American authorities, recently met with Senate Republican majority leader Mitch McConnell, with whom RA NA [National Assembly] Speaker Ararat Mirzoyan had met during a July 2019 visit to the United States, and then this meeting was widely covered.

Our compatriot, out of simple curiosity, asked McConnell what he thought about our parliamentary speaker, what their meeting was like. He replied: "I got the impression that the speaker of your parliament had come to take photos with me; there was no other purpose and meaning in our meeting."
