The [parliamentary] elections held in Karabakh were more democratic
than those in Armenia, Viktor Dallakyan, secretary of the Armenian
parliament's Justice faction, has said.
"The first impression is that the elections were normal as a whole,"
Dallakyan said, quoting reports by international monitors. If the
elections qualified as being in keeping with the democratic
principles, this will be of great importance to Karabakh in terms of
its international recognition and reputation. Otherwise, this may
have negative ramifications for Karabakh he said.
