В Ереване продолжаются акции протеста

В разных частях Еревана проходят акции протеста. Они проходят также в Ванадзоре, Гюмри, Севане, Раздане. К протестующим присоединились группа армянских военных, студенты. Протестующие требуют их немедленного освобождения задержанных трех депутатов и отставки премьер-министра Сержа Саргсяна, проведения досрочных парламентских выборов.

Напомним, что вчера во время мирного шествия протестующих были задержаны трое депутатов парламента Армении от оппозиционного блока «Выход» - организатор массовых протестов против премьерства Сержа Саргсяна, лидер инициативы «Мой шаг», глава партии «Гражданский договор» Никол Пашинян, его соратники Арарат Мирзоян и Сасун Микаелян.

Армянские СМИ сообщают, что на улице Эребуни в Ереване неизвестные в масках атаковали демонстрантов камнями. Как передает корреспондент Новости Армении-NEWS.am, лица этих людей закрыты медицинскими масками, некоторые из них держат в руках деревянные дубинки и камни. Они начали бить демонстрантов, а также повредили транспортные средства. Полиция абсолютно не вмешивается и не препятствует действиям этих людей.

Президент Армении призвал к продолжению поиска возможностей для диалога. События в Армении достигли опасной грани и могут привести к необратимым последствиям. Об этом сказано в заявлении президента Армении Армена Саркисяна.

EU to push for sanctions on Israel ministers and suspend bilateral support

The President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen stated she would push to sanction "extremist" Israeli ministers and curb trade ties over Gaza, as she warned famine should not be used as a "weapon of war". Addressing the European Parliament on 10 September in the annual State of the Union, von der Leyen lamented that divisions among member states were holding back a European response but insisted the European Commission "will do all that it can on its own". "What is happening in Gaza has shaken the conscience of the world. People killed while begging for food. Mothers holding lifeless babies. These images are simply catastrophic," von der Leyen said. The German politician said the Commission would put its bilateral support to Israel on hold, stopping all payments, but without affecting work with civil society groups and Israel's Yad Vashem Holocaust memorial.
