    MPs elected from party lists will gain a third of the 33 seats in the
    NKR National Assembly. The remaining 22 mandates will go to those
    elected under the first-past-the-post system.

    pro-government Democratic Party of Artsakh will get five seats in the
    new parliament (22,393 votes), the bloc of Dashnaktsutyun and
    Movement-88 (14,534 votes) and the Free Motherland Movement (15,931
    votes) will get three seats each.

    The list of the bloc of Dashnaktsutyun and Movement-88 is led by
    former Deputy Defence Minister Gen Vitaliy Balasanyan, Mayor of
    Stepanakert Eduard Agabekyan and former NKR Minister of
    Education and Culture Armen Sarkisyan.
