Sargsyan’s Amnesty Proposal to be Discussed on May 25: Parliamentary Speaker

National Assembly Chair Hovik Abrahamyan today announced that Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan’s amnesty proposal will be raised at the National Assembly’s meeting on Wednesday, May 25.

Recall, Sargsyan appealed to the National Assembly on Friday to grant amnesty on the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the independence of the Republic of Armenia. Afterwards, a closed session of the RA Standing Committee on State and Legal Affairs held a special closed meeting during which time the text of the amnesty was distributed to members.
