Armenian capital city Yerevan's former Mayor Gagik Beglaryan told
his colleagues that he would assume any ministerial position only
if he simultaneously takes on the office of the Deputy PM, Haykakan
Zhamanak daily says.
"According to our information, [President] Serzh Sargsyan is ready
to appoint Beglaryan as Transport [and Communication] Minister,
but he is having a hard time concerning the Deputy PM matter.
If it turns out that [PM] Tigran Sargsyan does not remain in office,
there will be no alternative to [incumbent] Deputy PM Armen Gevorgyan,
as an administrator who is capable of reaching agreements with
international organizations.
But Tigran Sargsyan, who considers Armen Gevorgyan as his cabinet's
sole presentable minister, also does not want to see Beglaryan in
the Deputy PM's status," Haykakan Zhamanak says.
According to another daily "Hraparak", there is shortage of the
ministerial portfolios in the government to satisfy the growing
appetite of the winners at the parliamentary election, first of
all in the person of the RPA. For this reason, the authorities of
Armenia have decided to form new ministries. First, the State Revenues
Committee will be divided and the Customs Committee and Tax Service
will again start functioning like two independent structures. The Tax
Service will be headed by the head of he State Security committee,
Gagik Khachatryan, and the Customs Service - by deputy chairman of
Audit Chamber, Levon Elyan.
Moreover, the Interior Affairs Ministry will be also formed, which
will function parallel to Police, whereas in all over the world police
implements functions of Interior Affairs Ministry.
