Political scientist Hrant Melik-Shahnazaryan writes: In the end, did Edmon find the trick of making another concession in Artsakh and throwing the dirty steps of these authorities into the pocket of the previous ones? A very talented ambassador came out. Simply irreplaceable. Every Nicole would dream of having such an ambassador. You can even make a new movie – Автока предателя

Presidents of Russia and Turkey Vladimir Putin and Recep Tayyip Erdogan began negotiations in a narrow format in Sochi, RIA Novosti reported.

The meeting is taking place on the territory of the Rus sanatorium. The leaders are expected to discuss bilateral cooperation and compare notes on the efficiency of grain exports from Ukrainian ports as well as the situation in Syria and Ukraine. The press secretary of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov did not rule out earlier that Putin and Erdogan will exchange views on the situation in Nagorno-Karabakh.

The presidents of Russia and Turkey are expected to discuss in detail the topic of Russian-Turkish multifaceted cooperation, including the prospects for further expansion of trade and economic relations and the implementation of joint strategic projects in the energy sector. As Peskov noted earlier, military-technical cooperation may become another topic of discussion.

Moscow did not see Yerevan’s proposals for the Russian peacekeeping operation in Nagorno-Karabakh, said Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, commenting on the statement of Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan.

“We have not seen specific proposals that the Prime Minister of Armenia wants to make in the context of the discussion of the Russian peacekeeping operation in Nagorno-Karabakh. Any of the parties to the agreements that were reached by the leaders of Russia, Armenia and Azerbaijan, of course, have the right to propose additional initiatives, as long as we have not seen them,” he said.

Pashinyan said on Thursday that it is necessary to specify the details of the peacekeeping operation in Nagorno-Karabakh.

Greece and Egypt committed to maintaining maritime security and stability in the Mediterranean Sea

Greek frigate HS IKARIA SZEF and Egyptian frigate Al-Moez engaged in the exercises

CAIRO: Egyptian and Greek naval forces engaged in a joint exercise in the Mediterranean Sea, within the range of the Egyptian Northern Fleet.

According to the Egyptian military, the drills contributed to exchanging joint experiences with Greek naval forces, benefiting both sides to achieve common aims and maintaining maritime security and stability in the region.

The exercises included different activities that focused exchanging operational positions in the maritime theater, as well as training on homogeneous work within a joint force charged with maintaining maritime security.

Exercises also included joint protection of a vital target at sea, and the implementation of sailing formations.

An Egyptian military spokesman said that the Greek frigate HS IKARIA SZEF and Egyptian frigate Al-Moez engaged in the exercises, which come within the framework of the Egyptian Military Command to raise its levels of training and exchange experiences with the armed forces of friendly countries.

The current policy of the authorities may prove to be destructive for Armenia’s economy, four NGOs told NEWS.am.

It also noted:

“The sharp decline in the dollar exchange rate since April this year has created insurmountable problems for many exporters. Most of the companies have incurred heavy losses in previous months, due to which some of them are on the verge of collapse. We demand that urgent measures be taken in the direction of compensating companies for their losses and ensuring their viability. The compensation toolkit to be implemented should cover losses incurred by companies since April 2022. We express our willingness to participate in the development and implementation of the necessary solutions. Starting today, the business associations will form a coalition to organize discussions on important topics. The next meeting of the coalition is scheduled for August 9”.

Public and political figure Avetik Chalabyan has been again arrested for three months.

The decision took judge Mnatsakan Martirosyan today during the court’s hearing in Yerevan.

At the beginning of the meeting, Chalabyan said yesterday he was diagnosed with hypertension of the 3rd degree, outpatient treatment was prescribed under the supervision of a cardiologist.

At the Monday’s court hearing, Chalabyan’s lawyers submitted a motion to recuse Judge Martirosyan, which was rejected.

Chalabyan is accused of trying to financially interest students in participating in opposition rallies. He was arrested on May 14 and then for another 15 days. On the evening of July 27, Avetik Chalabyan was released from the Armavir Penitentiary.

Probably in order to further strengthen homeland-diaspora ties, he is banning diaspora Armenians from entering Armenia.

The situation on this front is quite exotic, like all situations related to the current RA authorities. We have exotic situations in the National Assembly, in the government, around the RA president, in the RA police, in the National Security Service, in the courts – everywhere where this power has reached. In the 21st century, there is probably no country in the whole world where there is no legislative power, where all the power structures are bound to the protection of a semi-literate person, where the courts make a decision according to the whims of that same person, where the president is the head of a nail, where all the institutions of democracy are inactive. , where national values ​​are so despised, as in Armenia. It can be said that the RA government is an exotic phenomenon for all mankind. Only in Armenia is it possible not to issue an entry permit to a person of Armenian nationality. This is the same as not letting a Turk go to Turkey, an American to America, a Georgian to Georgia. Of course, we are not talking about criminal elements, but quite normal people who arrive, for example, in Germany because they are German and consider that country their homeland. That’s how an Englishman goes to England, a Frenchman goes to France, and that’s normal. Why can’t an Armenian come to Armenia because of some semi-literate person or because of his bad taste? Isn’t this exoticism, aren’t these outcasts who have power in Armenia aliens? Georgian: Georgia.

Armenian declares Armenian persona non grata in Armenia. This is another domestic success that we have achieved thanks to the exotic government of the day. Now imagine another Armenian becoming the leader of Armenia tomorrow and declaring persona non grata to today’s idiots. I can count names. And what is Nicole’s exotic junta to do when there are egregious precedents? Nikol, with his junta, has he never disrespected the state symbols of Armenia, has he not shot at the people, is he not corrupt, or is he so holy that it is impossible to find dirt on him? You give yourself 24 hours to leave the country and pull over. And then…

And who banned Raffi Hovhannisyan from entering the Republic of Artsakh? Just don’t say Russians or Azerbaijanis. Raffi Hovhannisyan did not inform the Russians or especially the official Baku in advance about his visit to Artsakh. It can be said that thanks to RA National Security Service, only one person knew about it and that one person was Nikol. And now Pashinyan should not be surprised why everyone is looking at him: what are you doing, boy, are you a Turk or a Turkish spy? Note also Nicole’s handwriting. It does not announce in advance that these, these, these Armenians cannot visit Armenia or Artsakh. He waits like a stealthy, criminal element, and when he learns from the National Security Service which “unpleasant” Armenian is going to cross the border of Armenia, he orders to stop his entry into Armenia or Artsakh. Tomorrow Pashinyan can do the same to the unwanted Armenians leaving Armenia. You go down, for example

What is Pashinyan aiming for with this? Apparently, he wants to leave 600,000 plus or minus 80,000 people in Armenia, who will never fight against him, and he will be able to devour everything with impunity. It’s a well-known theory: fewer people, fewer problems. Will the evil Pashinyan succeed in implementing this crazy idea of ​​his? And why shouldn’t it succeed? First, let’s answer this question, who will cut in front of him and give him such a loud slap that his grandfather’s wedding will come to mind? Otherwise, what is going on? An Armenian is banned from entering Armenia, and the Armenian begins to prove that he is not a camel… Is there a more exotic situation?
