Archbishop: Any election in Armenia is the responsibility of every  citizen

ArmInfo.  Any elections in Armenia are the responsibility of every citizen, as stated by  Archbishop Bagrat Galstanyan to reporters on June 7.

He said it would be hypocritical to not vote and then demand that  others improve their living conditions.  "Those who don't vote will  have only themselves to blame; in the future, they will no longer  have the right to speak out about their problems. Therefore, I urge  you to take responsibility during this crucial period, go out and  vote, and not just talk about your rights," the archbishop said.

Addressing the court's recent decision to transfer him from pretrial  detention to house arrest, the Archbishop said that the restriction  remains severe. "Given my status, this measure has not become any  more lenient," Galstanyan noted, emphasizing that he remains opposed  to any judicial restrictions on his freedom. "For me, both forms of  detention are unacceptable, and I have not reconciled myself to this  situation."
