Intensive Construction at the National Assembly
The newspaper "Hraparak" reports, "In the National Assembly, where expenses are no object for business trips, but the promise of 'equal offices for all deputies' has not been fulfilled, there is intensive construction work underway as the heating system is being changed. 'In 31 offices, the heating system has been replaced, and simultaneously, those offices are being renovated. A tender has been announced for the replacement of windows. We can hardly manage to complete all this before the new session; however, very active events are taking place in the garden of the National Assembly. Recently, within the framework of the 'Golden Apricot' festival, the film 'Tea with Mussolini' was screened,' said Tigran Galstyan, the head of the National Assembly staff.
Were you particular in choosing that film? 'No, it just happened that way. On July 20, we are also organizing a chess tournament where deputies will play with children.' It seems that is also significant; this National Assembly has been dubbed as a 'kindergarten.' 'No, that day is the International Chess Day.' Are you hiding Serzh Sargsyan behind this promotion? 'No, there’s no such thing; well-known chess players will also come to award the winners.'"
