Varoujan Vosganian, Romania’s minister of economy and commerce, has been nominated, by friends for the Nobel Prize in Literature. Vosganian has written a number of books on economics and politics, in addition to fiction and poetry. In 1990 he became president of the Armenians’ Union of Romania and was twice member of the Romania’s Chamber of Deputies, and twice senator. From 1996 to 2003 he was also head of a political party. Minister of Economy and Commerce (2006), Vosganian—unlikely as it may sound–was a leading member of the Romanian Humorists’ Association.
