Республиканская партия консолидирует власть в Армении

Правящая Республиканская партия во главе с президентом Сержем Саргсяном, как и ожидалось, стала победителем на парламентских выборах, прошедших в Армении в воскресенье (2 апреля). За партию проголосовало около половины принявших участие в выборах избирателей. На втором месте расположился Альянс Царукяна, набравший около 28% голосов. Две другие политические партии - про реформистская коалиция «Елк» и Дашнакская АРФ скорее всего преодолеют минимальный порог и будут представлены в парламенте.

В выборах приняли участие 1,544,974 из зарегистрированных 2,587,706 избирателей, что составляет 60,86%.

В целом выборы прошли мирно, но были зарегистрированы сотни жалоб. Также в ходе вчерашнего голосования поступали сообщения о подкупе голосов и значительных нарушениях тайны голосования.

Ожидается, что наблюдатели от БДИПЧ ОБСЕ, Совета Европы и Европейского парламента предоставят свои предварительные результаты по выборам на пресс-конференции в Ереване, в 16.00 по местному времени.

LIVE BLOG на commonspace.eu, посвященный выборам, возобновится в 09.00 CET / 11.00 Ереван, 3 апреля.

Denmark takes over EU Presidency with a focus on Security, Migration and Enlargement

On July 1, Denmark takes over the Presidency of the Council of the European Union for the eighth time. Under the motto ‘A Strong Europe in a Changing World’, the Danish Presidency said its programme of work will ensure that the EU takes responsibility for its own security, while also strengthening its competitiveness. Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said that priority will be given to boosting defence capabilities in Europe amid Russia's war in Ukraine and US threats to Greenland, a Danish autonomous territory. Pushing countries to keep promises to boost defence spending and bolstering Europe's "dangerous" security will top Denmark’s agenda as it takes over the rotating presidency on Tuesday, according to Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen.
