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.

Israeli hostages and Palestinian detainees released as Trump’s Gaza plan is endorsed in Egypt summit

Hamas freed the last living Israeli hostages from Gaza on Monday 13 October under a ceasefire deal and Israel sent home busloads of Palestinian detainees, as U.S. President Donald Trump declared the end of the two-year long war in the Middle East. Hours later, Trump convened Muslim and European leaders in Egypt to discuss the future of the Gaza Strip and the possibility of a wider regional peace, even as Hamas and Israel, both absent from the gathering, are yet to agree on the next steps. The Israeli military said it had received all 20 hostages confirmed to be alive, after their transfer form Gaza by the Red Cross. The announcement prompted cheering, hugging and weeping among thousands waiting at "Hostage Square" in Tel Aviv. In Gaza, thousands of relatives, many weeping with joy, gathered at a hospital where buses brought home some of the nearly 2,000 Palestinian prisoners and detainees to be freed by Israel as part of the accord. "The skies are calm, the guns are silent, the sirens are still and the sun rises on a Holy Land that is finally at peace," Trump told the Knesset, Israel's parliament, saying a "long nightmare" for both Israelis and Palestinians was over.
