13:23, November 29, 2012

Armenia's Ministry of the Environment has announced that Gabriel Poghosyan will not be appointed director of the Khosrov State Forest Reserve even though he won a recent competition for the vacant post.

Poghosyan's candidacy was criticized by many who argued that the man was not fit for the job and that the nomination procedure was a rush job by the government.

The ministry reports that Poghosyan himself had asked that his name be withdrawn, citing public criticism and the fact that he had other pressing commitments.
