The 2012 parliamentary elections are over. They were a new political
and moral trial for our statehood and people.
ARF-D presented a clear election programme to the public, in case of
the implementation of which all of us would live in a country differing
from the present one by its quality. We held a lively public campaign,
we brought our approaches to the attention of the voters and were
generally understood. We thank all of them who cast a vote for ARF-D.
Unfortunately, through the elections the will of the people and the
real ratio between the political forces were not expressed. It became
clear that the general election violations were planned and took
place outside the polling stations on May 6 and the days preceding
the election day. High results were recorded for the ruling coalition
members: firstly, through a full usage of the state and administrative
leverages and through the unprecedentedly large funds in form of
election bribes.
It is an undisputable fact that election bribes had a decisive
influence on the election results. This fact proves that the absolute
majority of the Armenian public, which is in a difficult social
situation, is legally unprotected and alienated from the state,
didn't make a free and realized choice. The people's depoliticization,
poverty and miserable situation ensured the authority's reproduction
through election bribes and pressures.
This also means that the political forces, including ARF-D haven't
still been able to enroot a consciousness of free citizens and citizens
who make a dignified choice among our public.
ARF-D, as an independent political force that adheres to clear
principles, calmly formulates its decline in the election results as
a start of a new stage of activity-a continuation of a general fight
till a complete authority change.
We are sure that sooner or later FREEDOM, JUSTICE, ARF-D and UNITY
will win our independent state.
ARF-D SUPREME BODY.
