“Irregularities continue, we will definitely make a statement after having the final blood tests in the morning,” said Samvel Karapetyan, the leader of the “Strong Armenia” alliance, in a special address after the June 7 national elections in Armenia.
He mentioned that at this late hour he wants to present the situation of the shameful elections.
“You all saw in this one month what persecutions we are subjected to, what violence we are subjected to, about 75 people from our teammates are detained today, more than 700 people are arrested. These people, not even resting, decided to engage in incomprehensible affairs on election day. There has not even been a case in the history of the world when they interrupt the calculation and say that they will present the results at 09:00 in the morning, seeing that their results are decreasing shamefully.
And they are decreasing every minute, they stopped the calculation, and we don’t even understand what they will present in the morning,” said Karapetyan, emphasizing that the elections are not over yet, the election results are not yet available.
“So don’t worry, they won’t have the victory they want, because you already guessed from their interview, from the expression on their faces, that their affairs are not good, they, having only 30% data, announce that they have already won. But 30 percent are the results of the rural areas, as soon as the results of the cities started, the numbers started to decrease very rapidly. That’s why special actions were taken, and we don’t even have an idea what kind of actions,” said Karapetyan. Therefore, he stated that he wants to inform that the illegalities continue, the unclear elections continue, and after having the final blood tests in the morning, they will announce the results of the election and express their opinion again.
“You see that even at 00:00 at night, military personnel are taken to Meghri polling station to vote. Definitely wanting to win this election, not having any chance for it, and they felt it as soon as they started counting the results, as soon as they started counting the results of the cities,” said Karapetyan.
