Sargsyan and his Republican Party are not running for office.

He told reporters after casting his ballot that he voted for “an Armenia capable of safeguarding the inviolability of its borders and ensuring the security, rights, and national dignity of its citizens.”

“I have come here to vote for an Armenia where lies and slander are condemned, and an active political stance is valued,” the third President of Armenia added.

He said the outcome of the elections depends on the voters and called on citizens to head to polling stations and vote.

Sargsyan added that he wants to see national unity in Armenia.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
