PAM Received $14 Million Bonus Last Year, Says Anna Kostanyan

In 2020, the PAM received a bonus amounting to 6.8 billion drams (approximately 14.2 million USD). This was announced by Anna Kostanyan, a member of the National Assembly from the LHK party, who reminded that this period was marked by the coronavirus pandemic and wartime conditions.

It should be noted that the topic of bonuses in parliament was raised by My Step Alliance MP Sisak Gabrielyan, specifically discussing the bonuses received by opposition MPs. However, as noted by BHK MP Arman Abovyan, he forgot to mention that the BHK allocated its bonuses for a year to combat the coronavirus and subsequently to assist those affected by the war.

In turn, the President of the National Assembly, Ararat Mirzoyan, stated that the last bonus received by MPs was in February of last year.
