Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Tensions erupted in Armenia’s parliament after Edgar Ghazaryan, an MP from Strong Armenia, urged members of the ruling Civil Contract party not to spend 250,000-dram bonuses, stating the money should be returned to the state budget. Deputy National Assembly Speaker Ruben Rubinyan objected to Ghazaryan’s remarks. The situation escalated when Civil Contract MP Hayk Ghalumyan and several colleagues moved toward and attacked lawmakers from Strong Armenia. Rubinyan subsequently called a recess.
