Пашинян освобождает от должности главного инспектора армии и двух его заместителей

Премьер-министр Армении Никол Пашинян в понедельник (18 ноября) подписал распоряжение об отставке главного инспектора Вооруженных сил Армении Мовсеса Акопяна и двух его заместителей.

Должность Главного военного инспектора в Армении считается очень высокой. До этого Акопян занимал пост командующим военными формированиями самопровозглашенной Нагорно-Карабахской Республики.

Во вторник армянские СМИ размышляли о причинах увольнения Акопяна. Газета «Иратес» связала увольнение с текущими политическими событиями в армянской политической элите в Нагорном Карабахе и предположила, что Акопян планировал оказать поддержку одному из кандидатов в президенты Масису Маеляну на предстоящих президентских выборах там, в то время как Пашинян поддерживает другого кандидата, Араика Арутюняна.

Правительственные источники однако отрицают это предположение и настаивают, что изменения в Военной инспекции были частью "структурных изменений". Представитель Министерства обороны заявил, что в ближайшее время Генеральная инспекция Вооруженных сил будет подчинена Министерству обороны, а не президенту республики. Газета «Жаманак» даже предположила, что Акопян и его заместители будут переназначены на новые должности после того, как произойдут изменения

Military parade to be held in Beijing as China and Russia reaffirm close ties

Chinese leader Xi Jinping welcomed Russian President Vladimir Putin as an “old friend” as the two began a series of meetings Tuesday at a time when their countries face both overlapping and differing challenges from the United States. Relations between China and Russia have deepened in recent years, particularly after the Russian invasion of Ukraine in early 2022. 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. The talks come the day after both attended a summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization in the nearby Chinese city of Tianjin, and the day before a grand Chinese military parade in Beijing to mark the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II.
