Бывший президент Армении арестован

Бывший президент Армении Роберт Кочарян арестован. Ранее Роберт Кочарян, который занимал пост главы государства Армении с 1998 по 2008 год, были предъявлены обвинения в связи с подавлением протестов оппозиции после спорных президентских выборов в 2008 году, в результате чего несколько человек погибли.

Ереванский районный суд 27 июля постановил, что Специальная следственная служба может задержать Кочаряна в ожидании дальнейшего расследования. Кочаряна обвиняют в даче приказа о разгоне и в свержении конституционного строя.

В настоящее время под следствием оказались ряд других лиц, занимавших руководящие должности в структурах армии и в службах безопасности. Также вчера нынешнему Генеральному секретарю России, возглавляемому Организацию Договора о коллективной безопасности (ОДКБ), генералу Юрию Хачатарову, был выпущен под залог после того, как ему было предъявлено обвинение в участии в инцидентах 2008 года. В то время Хачатаров возглавлял Ереванский военный округ.

According to AP, Putin addressed Xi as “dear friend” and said that Moscow’s ties with Beijing are “at an unprecedentedly high level.” Following their formal talks, they planned to have another meeting over tea with some of their top aides.
