Brought by Dashnaktsutyun, taken away by Dashnaktsutyun: Armen Ashotyan jokes over his possible resignation

Brought by Dashnaktsutyun, taken away by Dashnaktsutyun: Armen Ashotyan jokes over his 
possible resignation

YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 13, ARMENPRESS.  Minister of Education and Science Armen Ashotyan referred to rumors about his possible resignation. He mentioned that there were some criticisms, and it is natural because politicians are always targets, even if, away from everyone, he dies.

In the words of the Minister, there is no personal, political or professional crisis inside him. “One must be ready to break through the comfort zone and withstand new challenges. I loved and love political procedures. Media focused on me several times during these 7 years not only as minister of education, but also as a politician, and even sometimes criticized for the reason as it was sometimes unclear whether minister Ashotyan or politician Ashotyan was talking. I like politics in that sense”, he mentioned.  

To the question if Armen Ashotyan is offended from Dashnaktsutyun (ARF), the Minister mentioned,

“I have many friends among Dashnaktsutyun. When I assumed the post in 2009 from Spartak Seyranyan, we met many times, worked together and conducted a smooth transfer. The system is such that belonging to a political party may have importance only for some details. In strategic terms, if you follow the educational reforms of Armenia in the last 15-20 years, political belonging has had no impact on the goals. Our aim in educational system is to create national school in line with international standards. As refers to my being offended, I joked in a Dashnak circle: Brought by Dashnaktsutyun, taken away by Dashnaktsutyun”.
In his words, media reported about his resignation in 2012, 2014, 2015. “I am always ready psychologically. It does not mean that I do not like my job. It does not mean that I am not linked with my staff or sphere where I spent more time than at home for 7 years”, Armen Ashotyan stated.

In answer to the question over his new post, the Minister suggested to preserve the intrigue.
