What are the March 8 presents preferred by women-members of Armenia’s Parliament, of the Council of Elders of Yerevan’s Municipality and other women known to Armenia’s public?
Women MPs love flowers best of all. But they are especially appreciative of presents they receive from their grandchildren, Naira Zohrayan, Head of the parliamentary faction of the Prosperous Armenia party, told Tert.am that she sees some “false notes” in the excitement over the March 8 and April 7 holidays.

I recall that on one occasion, after the first part of my concert, when I went out onto the stage, it was covered with field flowers,” said Shushan Petrosyan, an MP of the ruling Republican Party of Armenia (RPA). “I love flowers best of all. But both my husband and my daughter have always pleasantly surprised me with presents The cost does not matter. I think a present is a special choice choosing it by yourself make you even happier. Women need more attention and warmth. And such women feel happy,” says Karine Achemyan. another female lawmaker of the governing politoal force.
“I may repeat myself, but for me, an original gift is a bunch of flowers, no matter the size. So I hope I will get my loved gift from my grandchildren tomorrow. And also, I think all presents which are made with love and warmth convey a positive energy.
“I like receiving those gifts which have been thought of, as you feel the one who made it has cared for it, thinking of something which you really like. It’s really pleasant to see that kind of attention no matter the gift, but I prefer flowers with flower pots, which grow in soil. They make me feel happier as you can care for those flowers long. ”
