RA Minister of Labor and Social Affairs Gevorg Petrosyan handed in his resignation papers. Khachik Galstyan, press secretary of Prosperous Party of Armenia (PPA) leader Gagik Tsarukyan confirmed information for NEWS.am.

Gevorg Petrosyan assumed ministerial post intended for PPA, coalition member.

The official reason for resignation is Minister’s health problems, which is weird. NEWS.am was the first to inform about impending removal of Petrosyan. However, later, PPA faction secretary Aram Safaryan told the agency reporters that the information is untrue.
