Президент Армении осмотрел войска на линии фронта и посетил Карабах.

Президент Армении Серж Саргсян, который также является главнокомандующим армянских вооруженных сил, в четверг (19 ноября) осмотрел оборонительные позиции в северо-восточной пограничной зоне Армении. Облаченный в военное обмундирование, в сопровождении министра обороны, президент "совершил обход в пограничных воинских частях, посетил оборонительные позиции, на месте ознакомился с боевой подготовкой Вооруженных сил, текущими работами военного строительства", говорится в заявлении пресс-службы Президента. В северо-восточной пограничной зоне Армении с Азербайджаном в последний год наблюдался рост напряженности, было много сообщений о перестрелках между войсками двух стран - некоторые из которых привели к человеческим жертвам, в том числе среди гражданских лиц.

Как сообщают армянские СМИ, после посещения северо-восточной пограничной зоны президент Саргсян направился в Нагорный Карабах, где он, как ожидается, проведет обсуждения с руководством самопровозглашенной Нагорно-Карабахской Республики.

European States "disturbed and deeply concerned at the deteriorating situation in Georgia"

A number of European states have said that they are "disturbed and deeply concerned at the deteriorating situation in Georgia". In a Joint statement of 11 July 2025 the Foreign Ministers of Belgium, Czechia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Iceland, Ireland, Latvia, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Spain, Sweden, the United Kingdom and the High Representative of the European Union commented on recent developments in Georgia We, the Foreign Ministers of European democracies, are disturbed and deeply concerned at the deteriorating situation in Georgia. We strongly condemn the recent, politically motivated, imprisonment and detention of the leaders of Georgian opposition, clearly designed to stifle political opposition in Georgia, a few months ahead of the local elections. Their detention, as well as arbitrary arrests and increasing repression of other Georgian authorities` critics, representatives of civil society, peaceful protesters and independent journalists, contribute to dismantling of democracy in Georgia and rapid transformation towards an authoritarian system, in contradiction to European norms and values. Recent legislative changes aim at stifling independent civil society and legitimate protest.
