/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "I am not tired and not going to leave the policy,
but still I do not know how I shall participate in the political
life," said Armenian FA minister Vartan Oskanian in Yerevan. In
his words, currently no political party in Armenia attracts him,
and there has been no offer from them. "The time will show. The new
president will want to work with his foreign minister since it is a
very important post.
And who in 2008 will be the new president I do not know. Because of it
all the talks on my political future are premature," the FA minister
underlined. He also noticed that he is not going to leave Armenia:
"It’s my motherland, I have nothing to do in other countries. I
knowingly made my choice when accepting Armenian citizenship."
It is worth reminding that Vartan Oskanian accepted Armenian
citizenship in 1998 refusing from American citizenship, since
according to the law, he could not occupy the position of Foreign
Affairs Minister being a citizen of another country.
