On June 8 the government of Armenia, relying on the May 6, 1997 order
of the president on regional governance, dismissed Stepan Barseghyan
from the post of governor of the region of Gegharkunik. Arsen Grigoryan
was appointed governor of Gegharkunik. Stepan Barseghyan, being a
member of the Orinats Yerkir Party, became governor thanks to the
coalition agreement. After the secession of the Orinats Yerkir Party
from the coalition Stepan Barseghyan left the party.
