The Moscow Post: Kocharian appointment on Gazprom agenda

PanARMENIAN.Net - Appointment of Robert Kocharian Vice President of Gazprom has been already put on the Board's agenda, The Moscow Post quoted a source in the gas giant.



Meanwhile, Gazprom's representative Sergei Kupriyanov denied offering Armenia's ex-President the post of Vice President. "Robert Kocharian wasn't offered a leading position in Gazprom," he said.



According to Timur Khayrullin, a senior expert at Antanta Capital investment company, "the position of Gazprom's Vice President is not as responsible as it seems to be." "He doesn't make key decisions. On the other hand, the person in the office should be matured in the field. Unfortunately, Mr Kocharian is not the one. To all appearance, it will be a political post responsible for CIS affairs," he said.



Earlier, an informed source in Moscow told PanARMENIAN.Net that Robert Kocharian was proposed the post of Gazprom's Vice President.
