NEW PROCEDURES FOR DIPLOMATS’ ROTATION ON CABINET’S AGENDA
11:49 ~U 07.02.13
The Armenian cabinet will discuss Thursday new procedures for the
rotation of diplomats and the list of the positions equivalent to
diplomatic services.
Under the Republic of Armenia Law on Diplomatic Service, a diplomat’s
minimum term of service in a foreign state is two years. The term can
be prolonged for no more than one year by the foreign minister’s
decision in case the head of the diplomatic mission in country
concerned presents an appropriate justification.
Upon necessity, the diplomat may be allowed to move to another mission
in the foreign state for no more than one year provided the total
length of his service in the given state does not exceed three years.
The foreign minister may sign a decree for organizing trainings for
certain diplomatic posts in a foreign country.
The rotation period is between months of December and January, and
July and August.
