YEREVAN, November 15. /ARKA/. Tsarukyan bloc has revolted against the government headed by Karen Karapetyan, prime minister, Zhamanak (Time) reported on Wednesday.

 According to the newspaper, Arinj Mall traders’ complaint came as a formal cause for this step.  

“Today the parliament will discuss the Armenian government budget for 2018, and it can be said for sure that Tsarukyan bloc will continue its attack by voting against the draft budget,” authors of the publication say. 

Naira Zohrabyan, an MP from Tsarukyan faction in the National Assembly said that this government has run out of steam.

In the parliamentary elections conducted on April 2, 2017, four political forces ensured their presence in the National Assembly. They are the ruling Republican Party of Armenia with 58 seats, Tsarukyan bloc with 31 seats, Dashnaktsutyun with seven seats and the opposition bloc YELQ with nine MPs. --0---
