    Armenian filmmaker named candidate for Russian Minister of Culture

    January 15, 2012 - 15:13 AMT


    PanARMENIAN.Net - Director General of Mosfilm Russian Film Studio,
    filmmaker Karen Shakhnazarov was named a possible candidate for
    Russian Minister of Culture, with current Minister Alexander Avdeev to
    soon quit his post.

    However, as Interfax reported, quoting a reliable source, `it won't be
    easy to find a man like Shakhnazarov to replace him on the post of
    Director General.'

    The head of governmental department for culture and education Denis
    Molchanov, presidential advisor on cultural matters Yuri Laptev and
    Deputy Minister Grigory Ivliev were also named among ministerial
    hopefuls, Molchanov enjoying the best chances in the list.

    With Avdeev, soon to become 65, announcing his intention to retire, no
    official information is provided as to his successor.
