Two weeks of mass protests in Armenia led to the resignation of the Prime Minister, with the opposition is claiming a peaceful velvet revolution is taking place, as people-power muscles out the old guard. But has this assumption come too soon?

Also in the programme: Mike Pompeo, the new US Secretary of State, visits Saudi Arabia.
