Армянский политолог

Вашингтон не рискнет начать войну против Ирана в преддверие президентских выборов. Об этом заявил сегодня на пресс-конференции директор Института Кавказа, политолог Александр Искандарян. По его мнению, давление Запада в отношении Тегерана имеет целью лишь воспрепятствовать реализации ядерной программы Ирана, причем воспрепятствовать сугубо политическими методами.

Кроме того, согласно Искандаряну, США и их европейские союзники пытаются ослабить весьма наглядное присутствие Ирана в Сирии, сорвать выгодный Тегерану ход развития событий в этой арабской стране.

Политолог подчеркнул, что воинственная риторика Запада в отношении Ирана сегодня не должна никого удивлять, поскольку они имели место практически в течение всего периода после исламской революции в 1979 г. При этом он добавил, что Тегеран выдерживает давление Запада весьма стойко, и что войной это давление, по крайней мере в обозримом будущем, не обернется.

French Prime Minister Francois Bayrou ousted after just nine months in office

Legislators toppled France’s government in a confidence vote on Monday 8 September, a new crisis for Europe’s second-largest economy that obliges President Emmanuel Macron to search for a fourth prime minister in 12 months. Prime Minister Francois Bayrou was ousted overwhelmingly in a 364-194 vote against him. Bayrou paid the price for what appeared to be a staggering political miscalculation, gambling that lawmakers would back his view that France must slash public spending to rein in its debts. Instead, they seized on the vote that Bayrou called to gang up against the 74-year-old centrist who was appointed by Macron last December.
