Today RA Ombudsman Armen Harutyunyan called on the citizens of the
Republic of Armenia not to sell their votes on the presidential
elections on February 19.
The Human Rights Defender noted that "if the elections are based
on ideas and not the bribing of voters, we shall get a system where
speaking about human rights will be simply senseless."
The Ombudsman considers that "the political force that buys ballots
will have no moral responsibility before the nation, will not be
interested in the improvement of the socio-economic condition, and
will not promote the real defense of the civil freedoms."
"Our citizens must be the masters of their votes, their franchise
right," Armen Harutyunyan underlined. He informed that there is a
"hotline" at the Ombudsman's Office, through which the voters and
observers can submit their complaints.
The phone numbers of the "hotline" are: 53-76-51, 53-92-71, 53-88-31,
53-76-34, 53-85-77, 091 00-88-17, 091 28-02-06.
