“After discussing the package of raising salaries of MPs and other high ranking officials, other rumours started to get wide spread at NA.

Parliamentarians are unveiling that those MPs who do not have their own business and are not wealthy, receive around $3000 monthly from national authorities.

Our correspondent tried to find out more from Republican MP Tadjat Vardapetyan, who said: “I don’t receive anything from anywhere besides my salary. I can even swear. I honestly confirm that I only receive my salary from NA”.

Nevertheless, monthly aids are given to MPs of Prosperous Armenia and Rule Of Law parties”, writes the paper.
