Президент Серж Саргсян назначил своего давнего союзника Овика Абрамяна, который до настоящего времени занимал пост председателя парламента, в качестве нового премьер-министра.

Новым премьер-министром Армении назначен Овик Абрамян до этого занимавший пост председателя парламента Армении. О его назначении было объявлено после того как президент Серж Саргсян сегодня утром встретился с руководством правящей Республиканской партии Армении (РПА). Новый премьер-министр, как ожидается, сформирует новое правительство в ближайшие три недели.

Слухи о назначении Абрамяна ходили в Ереване последние дни после отставки Тиграна Саркисяна. Абрамян считается стойким приверженцем  президента Сержа Саргсяна, он был ответственным за избирательную кампанию РПА на последних президентских и парламентских выборах.

Однако, Абрамян не всеми любим, а некоторые видят в этом назначении еще один признак того, что период реформ в Армении в настоящее окончен, и что единственным приоритетом отныне является подготовка государственных структур для слияния с Таможенным союзом и Евразийским союзом, продвигаемых Россией, к которым Армения хочет присоединиться как можно скорее.

EU to push for sanctions on Israel ministers and suspend bilateral support

The President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen stated she would push to sanction "extremist" Israeli ministers and curb trade ties over Gaza, as she warned famine should not be used as a "weapon of war". Addressing the European Parliament on 10 September in the annual State of the Union, von der Leyen lamented that divisions among member states were holding back a European response but insisted the European Commission "will do all that it can on its own". "What is happening in Gaza has shaken the conscience of the world. People killed while begging for food. Mothers holding lifeless babies. These images are simply catastrophic," von der Leyen said. The German politician said the Commission would put its bilateral support to Israel on hold, stopping all payments, but without affecting work with civil society groups and Israel's Yad Vashem Holocaust memorial.
