The Pre-Parliament movement of Armenia had predicted three months ago
that the people will meet an impasse as a result of Monday’s
presidential voting, since the elections have turned into a vote fraud
mechanism where the `casino’ always wins, the Pre-Parliament movement
coordinator, analyst Garegin Chugaszyan noted during a pres conference
on Saturday.
In his words, it is apparent that the people have gone ahead of their
constituents, and the post-election developments showed that the
notions, according to which the people cannot stand up for their
rights, were empty.
`The oppositional arena [in Armenia] collapsed back in December
[2012], but the latest developments showed that the people are
organizing themselves,’ Chugaszyan said.
He assessed the present-day situation in the country as the first
conscious struggle against the new colonial regime, and added that
quick self-organization is the key task of this struggle
