Armenia’s acting vice PM says MFA cannot remain without at least one person implementing minister’s duties

Armenia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs cannot remain without a person implementing the duties of the minister, Armenia’s acting vice prime minister Tigran Avinyan told the reporters today asked why the resignation application of deputy foreign affairs minister has not been signed.

He stressed that it was the main reason.

As to the issues voiced by Ara Aivazian, Avinyan said that starting from May 12 almost in everyday regime they had Security Council sessions and the foreign affairs minister participated in them.

“During these sessions all the issues were discussed. The decisions were made during those sessions with the participation of the foreign affairs minister. All members of the Security Council were informed about all our discussions,” Avinyan said.

Asked whether Aivazian had any objections to PM’s proposal on mirror-way withdrawal of the forces, Avinyan said Aivazian must speak about it on his own.

“All the decisions made were at least discussed,” the acting vice PM said.
