"I’ve got a solid ground under my feet. Within the framework of my job
I work over programs, projects. The only sphere with 0.1% decline in
Armenia of 2009 was the one of agriculture, while others registered
the 15% decline," told journalists Armenia’s Minister of Agriculture
Gerasym Alaverdian, in relation to recent reprimand by Prime Minister.

"My party is pleased with results of my work," said Gerasym
Alaverdian. Commenting Prime Minister’s reprimand, he said that was
a workflow.

"There have been taken necessary steps," Minister Alaverdian said.

"Henceforth ministerial contests will be held at gunpoint of
journalists and video cameras," he added.
