The National Assembly of the Republic of Armenia approved the motion submitted by the Prosecutor General regarding consent to initiate criminal prosecution against Armen Charchyan, a deputy of the “Armenia” faction.
After a closed secret ballot, the chairman of the Counting Commission, Narek Babayan, announced that of the 107 deputies of the National Assembly, 68 deputies participated in the vote, one ballot was declared invalid, and 67 deputies voted in favor.
