Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan has decided to appoint his
son-in-law Mikayel Minasyan as Ambassador to Vatican, reports Haykakan
Zhamanak newspaper.
In the past Minasyan was deputy head of the presidential staff, while
during the Feb 18 presidential race he was deputy head of Sargsyan's
campaign office.
The newspaper suggests that this may be a "punishment" for not very
good results on Feb 18. "Minasyan is trying hard to dissuade his
father-in-law," says the newspaper.
Current Ambassador of Armenia to Vatican is Vigen Chitechyan.
