Interim election results summed up in Armenia, Pashinyan called the situation a "steel revolution"
At the moment, about 87 percent of the ballots submitted by citizens during the parliamentary elections have been processed in Armenia. The Central Election Commission provides preliminary results of the expression of will. If you believe the latest reports, then the political force of the acting Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan "Civil Contract" wins the elections with a fairly significant margin.
According to the Armenian CEC, Pashinyan's political party is gaining about 55% of the vote. The second and third places are occupied by the “Armenia” bloc (alliance) with about 21% of the votes and the “I have the honor” bloc (slightly more than 5 percent).
It should be noted that the Armenia bloc is headed by one of Nikol Pashinyan's main opponents, Robert Kocharian, who has recently been particularly critical of him. The alliance itself by Kocharian was created quite recently - on May 9.
Commenting on the interim results of the elections, Nikol Pashinyan has already stated about "the confidence of the Armenian people." According to Pashinyan, "the people of the republic have spoken out, having made the right choice." At the same time, he called the outcome of the elections of the acting prime minister of Armenia a “steel revolution”. From the statement of the acting head of the Armenian government:
Pashinyan said that after winning the elections, his party will start forming a coalition with "healthy forces." Who specifically Pashinyan considers "healthy" and who is "unhealthy" politically, he did not explain.
Meanwhile, the “Armenia” alliance stated that the election results will not be recognized until doubts are dispelled. Kocharian's political bloc notes that the ratings of the "Civil Contract" were low, and the marches in support of Pashinyan's political forces were small, so the election result raises certain doubts. The “Armenia” bloc announced “hundreds of signals” from the polling stations, where, allegedly, falsification took place.
