The newly established Union of Women paid a visit to newly appointed
vice minister of employment and social security Tamara GEVORGYAN who
has been in her office for 1 month.
Gevorgyan was nominated to the position by United Working Party. The
vice minister told her guests that she is in charge of social security,
pensions, charity and international relations. "We have a lot of
challenges in these fields and I think we can do a lot together,"
she said, adding that family, women and children affairs are within
the authority of another vice minister. The Union member Tsovinar
GEVORGYAN expressed her opinion that women and children should be
dealt by a woman vice minister. Aida TOPUZYAN, chairwoman of Women
Voters’ League suggested the vice minister to mediate them to meet
the minister Aghvan Vardanyan and present their problems. The vice
minister promised to do so. Besides, she said she is going to regularly
meet reporters and make her work transparent.
