A new case of Azerbaijani interference in the Armenian elections was recorded in favor of the re-election of Nikol Pashinyan and CP. Arman Tatoyan, the prime ministerial candidate of the “Wings of Unity” party, announced this on his Facebook page.
In particular, he noted: “After the President of Azerbaijan announced just a few days ago that Armenians need psychiatrists, psychologists and doctors, and there was no response from Armenia, the Prime Minister of Armenia did not give any response, widespread publications began in Azerbaijan and one of their deputies, Musa Urod, published threatening articles, made threatening statements that Armenians should finally come to their senses, the President of Azerbaijan was right, he called us a stupid society, and then he said that Armenian society needs before the elections is to show that the power is in place and the iron fist is in place.
This is an obvious interference, I will send this to the European Union ambassador and delegation today.
If, based on the government’s statement, the EU is fighting against Russian interference (which is good), then Azerbaijani interference should be equally prevented.
Our society should choose not out of fear, but for the sake of our statehood and our people.”
