Пашинян подал в отставку, чтобы инициировать досрочные выборы

Премьер-министр Армении Никол Пашинян ушел в отставку, привидя в действие конституционный процесс, согласно которому в декабре должны будут состояться досрочные парламентские выборы. Пашинян будет продолжать выполнять роль временного премьер-министра до выборов.

Согласно конституции Армении, если премьер-министр ушел в отставку, и парламент не смог выбрать в ходе двух последовательных голосовании избирать преемника, парламент распускается и в стране проводятся досрочные выборы.

Пашинян занял пост премьер-министра в мае этого года, когда неожиданно бывший президент Серж Саргсян ушел в отставку из-за массовых уличных протестов.

Несмотря на то, что Пашинян по-прежнему пользуется широкой народной поддержкой, в парламенте преобладает старая гвардия во главе с Республиканской партией Армении (РПА). Технически парламент все же может назначить кого-то еще в качестве премьер-министра, но это привидет к разногласиям, которые спровоцируют еще одну волну народных волнений, поэтому, скорее всего, парламент согласится на кандидатуру Пашиняна и в декабре состоятся парламентские выборы.

Пашинян объявил о своей отставке в телевизионном обращении, транслируемом в прямом эфире общественного вещательного канала Армении. Премьер-министр завершил свое выступление сильным личным посланием армянскому народу:

"Я хочу, чтобы вы знали определенно и несомненно: все ваши боли в моем сердце, все ваши нужды в моих мыслях, все ваши мечты в моей душе и дают мне крылья и силы, чтобы стоять перед вами и уверенно сказать - все будет все в порядке, все будет очень хорошо.

Подготовьтесь к новым победам и подготовьтесь к созданию новой и могущественной, свободной и счастливой Армении.

Я люблю всех вас, я горжусь всеми вами, я склоняюсь перед вами, я вас всех целую."

Syrian president al Sharaa at the White House

Syrian president, Mohammed al Sharaa met with US President Donald Trump at the White House on Monday (10 November). Trump met with Sharaa in the first-ever visit by a Syrian president to the White House, six months after the two first met in Saudi Arabia, and just days after Washington said that the Syrian leader, who once led an Al-Qaeda affiliate group, was no longer a "Specially Designated Global Terrorist." Washington suspended the imposition of Caesar Act sanctions on Syria in part for 180 days, the Treasury Department said as the meeting took place. The move replaces a previous waiver enacted on 23 May, it said On Friday, the US lifted sanctions on Sharaa and Interior Minister Anas Khattab, a day after the UN Security Council took the same step. Sharaa, 42, took power last year after his fighters launched a lightning offensive from their Idlib and overthrew longtime Syrian President Bashar al-Assad just days later on December 8. Syria's regional realignment has since moved  away from key allies of the former regime, Iran and Russia, and toward Turkey, the Gulf - and Washington. Syria's presidency said that Sharaa and Trump discussed the bilateral relationship, "the ways to strengthen and develop it, as well as a number of regional and international issues of common interest." After al Sharaa and Trump met in Riyadh in May, Trump announced he would lift all sanctions on Syria.
