The Odyssey of the Report is Not Over. Did Vladimir Vardanyan Mislead? - "Hayrapet"
It seemed that the odyssey of the investigative committee's report on the 44-day war was over. The report was sent to the secret section of the National Assembly due to being "outdated" instead of being discussed during a plenary session. However, the issue is not considered resolved behind the scenes of the authorities. This is reported by the newspaper Hayrapet.
"Most of the committee members and the lawyers who worked on the report continue to fight and prove that the President of the National Assembly, Vladimir Vardanyan, misled them with his erroneous conclusion. They cite the precedent of the report on the four-day war, which was also discussed about a year after the committee's activities, at the decision of then-National Assembly President Ararat Mirzoyan, since both the regulations of the National Assembly and the interpretation of the Constitution deem the purpose to be the report. These committees differ from ordinary investigative committees in their characteristics, with the Defense Committee serving as the primary investigative body. As long as the next session of the National Assembly has not completed its authority, thus the committee and also the report remain legitimate, which Vardanyan did not take into account," the newspaper writes.
Moreover, the fate of the report should be decided in the National Assembly's plenary session. However, no session has been convened, which means that the situation can be reversed. After the raised noise, the President of the National Assembly also sent Vardanyan's conclusion to Nikol Pashinyan. He requested clarifications from the committee and received the aforementioned arguments. The committee is now waiting for Pashinyan's response, hoping that their justifications will ultimately be taken into account and that the much-discussed report will be up for discussion, also negating any doubts about a political decision being made to keep it from wider discussion," the newspaper reports.
