ARF: Pretending to be men behind the backs of people in uniform is  wrong

ArmInfo.The opposition faction "Armenia" in the National Assembly of  Armenia tried to  introduce a bill  criminalizing the denial of the Armenian Genocide. The "Civil Contract" faction strongly opposed this proposal and their members physically attacked opposition MPs in the National Assembly.   Ishkhan Saghatelyan, representative of the ARF party and MP from the "Armenia" faction, informed journalists about this on April 22. 

Saghatelyan believes that this attitude towards the ARF is quite  natural, given the presence of a puppet Turkish government, an  anti-national union that has distanced itself from Armenian  interests, while the ARF has always stood on the side of the Armenian  people.  According to the politician, the disagreements with the  current government revolve around differing visions for Armenia's  future and the protection of the rights of the Armenian people.  "Therefore, their attacks on the ARF, national forces and national  figures are, in general, expected. If you look at the rhetoric of  Azerbaijan, Turkey, as well as that of the Armenian authorities and  the majority of the members of the Civil Contract party, they are the  same, because the enemies of Armenia also hate national forces. And  the ARF today is the largest and pan-Armenian national force,"  Saghatelyan said. 

In response to the remark that in one of the videos filmed during the  incident that took place today in the National Assembly, the  secretary of the "Civil Contract" faction Artur Hovhannisyan can be  heard calling opponents prostitutes, the deputy noted that the  representatives of the current government do not have basic masculine  qualities. "They instruct the guards: wait behind the door, as soon  as we say, you will enter immediately. However, once they lose this  state protection, their true identities  will be revealed. Aren't you  familiar with the biographies of these people, their lives?  Pretending to be men behind the backs of people in uniform is wrong,"  Ishkhan Saghatelyan emphasized.
