YEREVAN, June 12. /ARKA/. The Prosperous Armenia Party (PAP) is beginning political consultations with political forces to develop a unified agenda and steps, party leader Gagik Tsarukyan announced.
"The PAP is beginning a series of steps aimed at protecting justice and the interests of voters, as well as countering the government's illegal actions. Our legal teams are working on all possible appeals and legal proceedings," Tsarukyan said in a statement.
At an extraordinary meeting of the Central Election Commission on June 11, the results of polling stations No. 10/51 and No. 35/65 in the June 7 parliamentary elections were invalidated. The Prosperous Armenia Party stated that this was aimed at preventing the party from entering parliament, as the results of those polling stations where the PAP received a large number of votes were invalidated. "We engaged in a fair political struggle, but every possible illegal measure was and continues to be used against us. I want to assure you that we will continue to defend your vote of confidence by all legal means. This is no longer just a problem for the Prosperous Armenia Party; it is a problem for all post-election developments in Armenia, a problem for all of us. Our team will be actively working today and in the coming days, collaborating with all our opposition partners," Tsarukyan said in a statement.
About the elections
Elections to the National Assembly of Armenia took place on June 7. Eighteen political forces participated, 15 of which failed to pass the minimum 4% threshold for entry into parliament.
According to preliminary election results, the ruling Civil Contract party (with 49.825% of the vote), the opposition blocs Strong Armenia (23.281%), and Armenia (9.934%) are in the National Assembly. Another opposition party, Prosperous Armenia, received 3.996% of the vote, falling just a few dozen votes short of the threshold.
The final election results will be announced on June 14.
Meanwhile, several opposition political parties have announced their intention to initiate a review of the results, alleging the authorities' use of administrative resources and pressure on voters during the electoral process. Three political forces—Prosperous Armenia, Wings of Unity, and the Armenia bloc—have filed petitions with the Central Election Commission (CEC) for a recount of the votes cast at 555 of the 2,005 polling stations.
The Strong Armenia bloc intends to appeal to the CEC on June 12, demanding that the parliamentary election results be invalidated and that the votes cast for the Civil Contract party be reconsidered.
