Georgian parliament speaker resigns

Georgian parliament speaker Archil Talakvadze announced his resignation on Saturday. "Given that several months of tense negotiations between the ruling party and the opposition parties ended with an agreement, where I was involved along with the party chairman, I think it would be appropriate to leave the position of Speaker and nominate a person who will lead the work of the parliament from a more neutral position," said Talakvadze at a news briefing. According to Irakli Kobakhidze, chairman of the ruling Georgian Dream party, Kakha Kuchava will be nominated for the post of parliament speaker while Talakvadze will hold the position of vice speaker. Kuchava, who has been the vice speaker of the tenth convocation of the Georgian parliament, has been a member of the ruling party since 2016.

Election of deputy speaker of HoR today: All you need to know about votes

KATHMANDU, July 15: Voting for the election of the deputy speaker of the House of Representatives (HoR) is scheduled for 3 PM on Friday. Pushpa Bushla, leader of Nepali Congress, backed by the ruling alliance and Bidya Bhattarai of CPN-UML, the main opposition party, are contesting for the post. As the ruling alliance of Nepali Congress, CPN (Maoist Center), CPN (Unified Socialist), Janata Samajbadi Party (JSP) and Rastriya Janamorcha Party have majority in parliament, election of Bhusal as new deputy speaker of the lower house is very much likely. There are currently 275 lawmakers in the lower house. Of them, 98 represents the CPN-UML. Nepali Congress has 63 lawmakers, CPN (MC) has 49, CPN (US) has 23, JSP has 19 and Rastriya Janamorch Party has one making a total of 155 for the ruling alliance. Likewise, Loktantrik Samajwadi Party, which has already announced its support for the ruling alliance, has 13 lawmakers. With this, Bhusal seems to have the support of as many as 137 lawmakers. For Bhattarai, the number stands at 101 including support from Rastriya Prajatantra Party, Nepal Workers' and Peasants' Party and independent lawmakers.

Iranian parliament approves 18 ministerial nominees

TEHRAN, August 26 : Iranian lawmakers on Wednesday gave votes of confidence to 18 out of 19 ministers proposed by President Ebrahim Raisi, according to the parliament's website. The lawmakers started the debates on the qualification of the nominees last Saturday and decided on the list of the cabinet on Wednesday. In the parliament meeting, after hearing the last defenses of Raisi about his proposed ministers, the lawmakers expressed their opinion on the competence of each of the nominees and then cast their votes. After the parliament speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf announced the results of the voting session, the candidate for Ministry of Education was the only person who did not win the approval of the parliament. According to the law, the president has three months to nominate the remaining minister. On Aug. 11, Raisi submitted the list of proposed ministers to the parliament. Among the approved, Hossein Amir Abdollahian became Iran's foreign minister. He was former deputy foreign minister for Arab and African Affairs in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and former special aide to the speaker of the parliament on international affairs. Javad Owji, former head of Iran's National Gas Company, was appointed the Minister of Petroleum. Raisi on Wednesday appointed Mohsen Rezaei, one of his rivals in the June presidential election, as the vice president for economic affairs.
