The opposition Armenian National Congress (HAK) has released a
statement today arguing that it considers it senseless to participate
in the upcoming presidential election in Armenia and that it will not
back any other candidate in the race.
HAK states that during the past five years since the fraudulent 2008
presidential election, President Sargsyan has consistently destroyed
any chance of conducting democratic and competitive elections in
Armenia.
The statement says that despite all the lofty promises made to the
public in Armenia and internationally, the 2009 Yerevan mayoral and
2012 parliamentary elections were essentially falsified as well.
Given this reality, HAK declared that it wouldn't be participating in
such a farce and would not support any other candidate since such a
move would only further legitimize the illegal regime now in power.
