Despite the president announcing the state of emergency a couple of hours ago weve now had a statement come through this being made by the by speaker of Parliament Saying that parliament has to vote on the state of emergency in order for it to be legal we understand that emergency session of parliament will be held tomorrow to do exactly that its expected that the state of emergency will be voted for and that emergency session will also include discussions of of the Prime Minister candidates now we already have a Prime Minister in this country somebody who apparently was voted in in a parliamentary session earlier this week. A person who other opposition supporters say was illegitimately voted as pm and as we will inevitably talk about has been causing. So some say some Serious Problems in the capital over the last couple of days but as i say this these mixed messages from from the government. In terms of when this state of emergency starts is just another example of the fact that there doesnt seem to be anybody in full control of this country at the moment you could argue that it is certainly the opposition are putting pressure on the government to follow the kind of legal parameters that this country is proud of setting up in recent years but as i say in the last few days the chaos that weve seen on the streets seems to suggest that all those legal parameters seem to be falling apart to moscow where foreign minister is a farmer and as a base are now holding talks to resolve the weeks long border conflict over nagornokarabakh its the latest effort to end the worst flare up in violence between the 2 nations for over a quarter of a century armenia as leader says hes ready to resume peace talks but the as a reprisal ends seems to be backing a military solution to the conflict for now journalist alexander story on a wretched god for it is following russias mediation efforts from moscow.
