    Exercising his constitutional powers, Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan
    signed a decree on June 16, appointing new government members.

    The new composition of the government has undergone little change
    compared to the previous one. The few changes are mostly conditioned
    by the withdrawal of the Prosperous Armenia Party from the ruling
    coalition as its ministers losing their positions correspondingly.

    By the decree, Sergo Karapetyan was appointed Agriculture Minister,
    Tigran Davtyan was appointed Minister of Economy, Vache Gabrielyan
    - Minister of Finance, Gagik Beglaryan - Minister of Transport
    and Communication, Artyom Asatryan - Minister of Labor and Social
    Affairs, Derenik Dumanyan - Minister of Health, Hrayr Tovmasyan -
    Justice Minister, Aram Harutyunyan - Minister of Nature Protection,
    Armen Movsisyan - Minister of Energy and Natural Resources, Armen
    Ashotyan - Minister of Education and Science, Hasmik Poghosyan -
    Minister of Culture, Hrachya Rostomyan - Minister of Sport and Youth
    Affairs, Hranush Hakobyan - Minister of Diaspora, Samvel Tadevosyan-
    Minister of Urban Development and Armen Gevorgyan - Minister of
    Territorial Administration.

    By another decree Sargsyan appointed Armen Gevorgyan as Deputy Prime
    Minister.

    By his earlier decrees the president appointed Edward Nalbandyan,
    Seyran Ohanyan and Armen Yeritsyan ministers of foreign affairs,
    defense and emergency situations, respectively.

    The government led by Tigran Sargsyan was due to hold its special
    meeting Monday afternoon.
