Postanjian asks parliament to give money for Strasbourg trip
The head of Heritage parliamentary faction, former member of the Armenian delegation to the PACE Zaruhi Postanjian - she intends to attend the winter session of the PACE and bring up the issue of the Armenian delegation ‘s legitimacy – has filed an application to the parliamentary speaker Hovik Abrahamian recently.
‘Zhoghovurd’ paper says that Z. Postanjian asked the parliament to give money for her trip to Strasbourg, but her request was rejected on behalf of Hovik Abrahamian.
“It is noteworthy that although the European People’s Party (EPP) faction invited the former member of the Armenian delegation to Strasbourg, it did not take the trouble to pay her travel costs. It is not clear why EPP made such a decision – those who invite usually cover travel costs,” the paper writes.
