БЕСПОРЯДКИ В АФИНАХ, НА ФОНЕ ПРИНЯТОГО ДЕПУТАТАМИ СПАСАТЕЛЬНОГО ПАКЕТА МЕР

Греческие депутаты одобрили спорный пакет мер жесткой экономии, требуемый Еврозоной и МВФ в обмен на 130 млрд. евро.

Голосование было проведено с результатами 199 за и 74 против. После голосования из правящей коалиции были исключены более 40 парламентариев, которые отказались поддержать меры по сокращению расходов.

Десятки тысяч людей вышли протестовать на улицы Афин, на которых царили беспорядки и столкновения, во время которых были подожжены здания. Бурные протесты были зарегистрированы в городах по всей стране.

Протестующие у здания парламента бросали камни и бутылки с зажигательной смесью, а полиция отвечала слезоточивым газом. Десятки полицейских и демонстрантов получили ранения.

Премьер-министр Лукас Пападемос призвал к спокойствию, заявив, что "жесткий пакет" создаст основу для реформ и восстановления экономики.

Беспорядки в Афинах были несколько неблагоприятным местом для Бако Саакяна, президента самопровозглашенной Нагорно-Карабахской Республики, который в настоящее время находится с визитом в Греции.

Саакян в воскресенье провел встречи с лидерами армянской общины в Греции. Он также присутствовал в церкви Святой Богоматери, где принял участие в воскресной литургии, которую отслужил предводитель Арцахской епархии Армянской Апостольской церкви, архиепископ Паргев Мартиросян.
