No one at the second international Armagroforum misheard Minister of
Agriculture Davit Lockyan who said at the opening ceremony, "President
of Armenia, Robert Sargsyan, has an address to the conference."
Participants could not help their laughs at the hall.
Soon after Karen Tchshmaritsyan, minister of trade and economic
development, made another mistake in his speech at Panarmenian
EXPO-2006 saying, "The honor to open the exhibition is given to Robert
Kocharyan, Armenian prime minister." The president took the mistake
with humor and smiled.
Of coarse, no one is guaranteed against such mistakes but psychologists
believe that mistakes made by chance have deep subconscious roots. We
can say that one of our ministers envisages someone with the surname
Sargsyan as a president (most probably Serzh Sargsyan) while the other
minister thinks that Robert Kocharyan may become a prime minister and
administer the government. Such developments are variously scenarioed
by the opposition. /Panorama.am/
