MAJORITY BOYCOTTS ARMENIAN PARLIAMENT SESSION
Parliament failed to reconvene on 3 February after its one-month winter
recess because of the lack of a quorum, Noyan Tapan and RFE/RL's Yerevan
bureau reported. Only 46 of the 131 deputies registered for the session,
fewer than the 66 required. Most of the 46 represent opposition parties,
and only a handful of deputies from the majority Miasnutiun faction were
present. Opposition deputies accused the pro-government majority of
deliberately blocking debate until after the 19 February presidential
election. LF
