News... mostly political.

In the other news, Armenia's Prime Minister died recently of heart attack. He was known to be a stabilizing factor between different political fractions, and there was a fear of his death triggering clashes between them. So far it only triggered lots of speculations as to who is to replace him.

Today, in true traditions of Cicilian mafia, the mayor of Armenia's second largest town of Gyumri and his deputy were wounded and two bodyguards and a driver killed "in a bold highway attack".

And, of course, the parliamentary elections are coming up on May 12. Which is a whole topic in itself.
