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."

Campaign "Landmine Free South Caucasus 2025" launched

LINKS Europe is pleased to announce the launch of the campaign Landmine Free South Caucasus 2025. This will be the fourth Landmine Free South Caucasus campaign that LINKS Europe is co-ordinating since 2019, and like previous editions, the campaign will be regional, involving Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia, and will have five official languages: Armenian, Azerbaijani, Georgian, Russian and English. LINKS Europe will work with stakeholders in the three countries in the delivery of the campaign. The campaign will run from 1 September to 15 December. The first part, from 1 September to 15 November, will be largely informative, using media and social media, whilst engaging with decision makers and civil society in the three countries. In the second part of the campaign, from 15 November to 15 December, the focus this year will be on the human and economic costs of landmine contamination. The Campaign will again mark 30 November as the Day of Solidarity with the victims of landmines and other remnants of war in the South Caucasus. A spokesperson for LINKS Europe said this year the campaign takes special significance following the progress in the Armenia-Azerbaijan Peace Process and the historic meeting between the Armenian and Azerbaijani leaders, together with the US president in the White House on 8 August. For six years, between 2018-2024, LINKS Europe worked on landmine issues in a very difficult political context, but always insisted that a regional approach was necessary for successful mine action in the South Caucasus. It consistently held that mine action could serve as a confidence-building measure in the region. Landmine Free South Caucasus 2025 will again push these ideas, but the context has changed, and the chance of success is now higher.
