YEREVAN. - It is too early to seek successor of Vahan Hovhannisyan,
the MP himself told Armenian News-NEWS.am commenting on allegation
about his possible appointment to the ambassadorial post.
"They dropped a hint to divert media's attention from other serious
problems. The media rises to the fly. Let them write about me without
clarifying information. I have nothing to add. I am not going to
renounce my MP seat," Hovhannisyan emphasized.
Asked how he will combine his work in the parliament with a diplomatic
career, Hovhannisyan said: "Did I say that I would be appointed as
an ambassador? These reports are untrue. An offer and an appointment
are two different things. Let's not run ahead."
The rumors about possible appointment have been spread for several
weeks. ARF Dashnaktsutyn members are not commenting on the reports.
Earlier Hovhannisyan said he had received a proposal to represent
Armenia abroad and considers it acceptable.
