Тигран Саркисян вновь назначен премьер-министром Армении. Это признак того, что правительство продолжит свою программу осторожных реформ, несмотря на противодействие с нескольких сторон.

Президент Армении, Серж Саргсян, вчера подписал указ о повторном назначении Тиграна Саркисяна премьер-министром. Решение ранее было обсуждено и одобрено Советом правящей Республиканской партии Армении.

Тигран Саркисян, рассматриваемый некоторыми, как реформист и профессиональный технократ, в течение последних лет подвергался критике с разных сторон за его программу осторожных реформ, которым противостоят различные группы, заинтересованных в сохранении закрытой и монополистической экономики Армении. Саркисяна также иногда критиковали и те, кто считает, что его программа реформ была недостаточно амбициозной.

Повторное назначение Тиграна Саркисяна премьер-министром, вероятно, одно из основных причин, из-за чего в конечном итоге партия Процветающая Армения (ППА), вторая по величине партия в парламенте Армении, не присоединилась к коалиционному правительству. Считается, что ППА находится под влиянием бывшего президента Роберта Кочаряна, который в прошлом открыто критиковал политику Тиграна Саркисяна.

Премьер-министр в последние два года также возглавляет армянское чарующее наступление на Европейский Союз, в результате чего Армения добилась прогресса в переговорах с ЕС по предлагаемому Соглашению об ассоциации. Сегодня Саркисян отбывает в Брюссель для встречи с европейскими политиками, где выступит на встрече в одном из "мозговых центров" Брюсселя. Как ожидается, он сформирует новое правительство в течение ближайших двух недель.
