Armenian presidential administration?
Head of Armenian presidential administration Artashes Tumanyan was
dismissed mainly for the talks he conducted with Iran on construction
of 5th energy unit of Hrazdan TPS. Opposition MP Arshak Sadoyan is

also co-Chair of the Armenian-Iranian Intergovernmental Economic
Commission, agreed with the Iranian side in January 2006, that Iran
would construct the energy unit. In connection with the question,
`problems arose with Gazprom, and the Armenian authorities decided to
dismiss Tumanyan under pretence of fact, he established party,'

agreement with the Iranian side.
