PM expresses regret to Dashnaktsutyun (video)
According to the ARF faction secretary Aghvan Vardanyan, the Prime Minister said that “there are misunderstandings in the society and in the media outlets connected with the first session of the Government, but he didn’t have such a desire.” Artsvik Minasyan will soon become Minister of Nature Protection. Aghvan Vardanyan knows why the PM cannot see him in the renamed Ministry of Economy, “In the renamed ministry the PM wants to see a person with more business thinking, a person connected with business.” The number of ministerial positions isn’t important to Dashnaktsutyun; with the agreement with the Republican, the party has formulated the issues- corruption, shadow. Vahram Baghdasaryan isn’t that much concerned about the fact that the other ministers appointed by PM aren’t Republicans, “Karen Karapetyan fulfills the functions adopted by the HHK.” But Mr Karapetyan appointed his friends as ministers. Vahram Baghdasaryan reminds that those friends are members of the Republican team, though they aren’t partisans, “Armenia is a small country and it is possible that they have ties with each other. The Republican Party has never, especially recently, based on the party membership and won’t do so.” No one will make those ministers become a member of the Republican Party, says Mr Baghdasaryan. This is fraud for Levon Zurabyan, even if no one is a Republican, this Government is based on the Republican Party, “This base hasn’t been changed for already 18 years.” According to the Armenian National Congress (HAK) faction head Levon Zurabyan, the Republican has been engaged in corruption and shadow for already 18 years, and for already the 7th time in those 18 years it announces its desire to make changes, what’ more, without the Republicans.
