Abkhazia’s President Resigns; Two Cables Damaged in the Baltic Sea: Morning Digest, 19 November
President of Abkhazia Resigns
On November 18, Aslan Bzhania, the President of Abkhazia, submitted his resignation. His resignation comes amidst ongoing political tensions in the breakaway region of Georgia.
Bzhania cited health reasons for his resignation. However, there has been speculation that his resignation may be related to the recent protests against his government. The protests were sparked by the government's handling of the economy and the COVID-19 pandemic.
Bzhania's resignation has created uncertainty about the future of Abkhazia. The region has been de facto independent since the early 1990s, but its status is not recognized by most countries.
Two Cables Damaged in the Baltic Sea

The damage to the cables has disrupted internet and phone service in several countries. The cause of the damage is still unknown, but sabotage is suspected.
The damaged cables are operated by different companies, but both are important for global communications. The repairs are expected to take several weeks.
