Prime Minister Serzh Sarksyan has won Armenia's presidential election
according to exit polls. His main rival opposition leader Levon
Ter-Petrosyan has denounced voting irregularities and called for mass
protests in the capital Yerevan on Wednesday.
An ally of outgoing president Robert Kocharyan, Sarksyan is expected to
continue in his footsteps. Kocharyan's decade in power has been marked
by economic growth and a firm stance towards neighbours Azerbaijan
and Turkey.
Previous elections in Armenia have been followed by mass opposition
protests over alleged fraud.
