YEREVAN. – Armenia’s parliamentary election campaign has just started, but the ruling echelons are already discussing the future ministerial shifts, Yerkir daily writes. 

“Our sources claim that when the new government is formed, the [Republican Party of Armenia] RPA and the [Prosperous Armenia Party] PAP will exchange the positions of the health and the education and science ministers.  

Incidentally, according to our information, Education and Science Minister Armen Ashotyan is not that much against relinquishing his position. He prefers a calmer position, let us say, an ambassador in any other country. 

Contrary to him, Health Minister Harutyun Kushkyan is unable to cope with the idea of leaving the minister’s post,” Yerkir writes.
