"Strong Armenia" bloc headquarters currently analyzing situation to  determine true picture of voters` will

ArmInfo. Throughout the election process, the "Strong Armenia" bloc operated under unprecedented and widespread pressure and persecution orchestrated by the state system, as reported by Marianna Ghahramanyan, press secretary of the "Strong Armenia" party.

"The campaign phase was accompanied by targeted actions against our  leader, candidates, supporters, and allies, alongside mass unlawful  arrests and criminal prosecutions aimed at restricting political  competition and suppressing voters' freedom of expression. On  election day itself, administrative resources were widely exploited,  and state as well as public levers were deployed to predetermine the  outcome of the vote.  Numerous violations of electoral legislation  were recorded on election day, with reports coming in from across the  republic throughout the entire day. These aforementioned phenomena  could not fail to impact the electoral process and its results," the  spokesperson noted.

The press secretary also pointed to an unprecedented development:  before the Central Election Commission (CEC) had processed the  results from all polling stations, Nikol Pashinyan declared "victory"  and the formation of a single-party government, which she argued  served as a directive to the CEC.

"Under these circumstances, the published figures cannot reflect the  real picture and cannot be accepted without an in-depth study and a  thorough legal and political assessment," Ghahramanyan added.  She  concluded by noting that the central headquarters of the "Strong  Armenia" bloc is currently analyzing the situation to determine the  true expression of the voters' will, after which the opposition bloc  will formally present its stance and next steps.
