/PanARMENIAN.Net/ On February 25, members of Artur Baghdassaryan's
election headquarters issued a statement which says, in part,
"Yesterday the RA CEC held an extra sitting to confirm the outcomes of
the February 19 presidential election. The CEC informed of the meeting
just 30 minutes before it started but not 2 hours as it's envisaged
by the regulations. The meeting immediately followed completion of
the re-count and thus deprived the candidates of the possibility to
familiarize themselves with their outcomes. In this view we state
that the results of the election were distorted."
"We condemn the arrests of political figures," it says.
"Levon Ter-Petrosyan's claim of 65 per cent of votes is also
inadmissible for us... We state that use of force will escalate
tensions and give way to mass collisions, thus damaging the
international image of the country and questioning the entire election
process. True to our 300 thousand supporters and responsible for
hundreds of thousands of Serzh Sargsyan and Levon Ter-Petrosyan's
voters, we call on the parties to resolve the problems via a political
dialogue," the statement says.
