Six opposition political forces in Armenia have issued a joint statement following the parliamentary elections held on June 7 and the political situation in the country, UNN reports with reference to "News Armenia."
Details
The statement was signed by the "Prosperous Armenia" party, the "Strong Armenia" and "Armenia" blocs, the "Bright Armenia" party, the "Armenian National Congress," and the "National Democratic Pole."
The statement notes that the parliamentary elections in Armenia were held under conditions that, according to the political forces that signed it, "place the free, fair, and competitive nature of the electoral process under fundamental doubt."
Opposition forces claim that throughout the entire electoral process, including the pre-election period and election day, "systemic and organized violations" took place, which significantly affected the free expression of voters' will, the ensuring of equal political competition, and public trust in electoral institutions.
"The presented official election data do not reflect the real will of the people and the accurate results of the elections," the statement reads.
The political forces that signed the document believe that results recorded under such conditions cannot serve as a basis for forming a legitimate government that enjoys the trust of the majority of the people.
Addendum
Today, the Central Electoral Commission of Armenia approved the distribution of mandates in the National Assembly based on the results of the parliamentary elections.
