Armenian high-tech minister denies resignation talk

Minister of High-tech Industry Robert Khachatryan has dismissed any suggestion he could resign.

“No such discussions have been held. I don’t think it’s worth commenting on such reports,” he told a press briefing outside the Armenian government on Thursday.

The minister refused to comment on the suspension of Sputnik Armenia’s license for 30 days and Russia’s tough response to it, adding that the decision had been made by the Radio and Television Commission.
