Armenian Prime Minister tenders resignation
None
YEREVAN - Armenian Prime Minister Hovik Abrahamyan tendered his resignation at a government meeting on Thursday, saying the country needed fresh policies, after an economic slowdown this year and outbreaks of violence.
His announcement paves the way for the cabinet to resign and the president to appoint a new prime minister following consultations with parliament.
"We need a new approach, new start. That's why I've decided to resign and let the president form a new government," Abrahamyan said.
