Discord between Armenian premier and economy minister escalates
YEREVAN, July 6. /ARKA/. In recent days, a discord broke out between Hovik Abrahamyan, Armenian prime minister, and Artsvik Minasyan, economy minister, over a problem presented by one of the members of the government, Zhoghovurd (People) reports referring to its own sources. 

According to the newspaper, the premier addressed the minister disrespectfully, and the latter reacted to that by releasing a coarse remark and said that the head of the government had no any right to talk to him in such a manner. 

The matter was settled and the sides reached an accord after that. 

Zhoghovurd asked Minasyan why he got angry, but the minister denied the information saying nothing like that has happened.

In his words, he and the prime minister are in good terms. 

Other sources in the government denied the information as well. --0---
