EU adjudicated Amrenian  elections  

EU adjudicated Amrenian  elections  

ArmInfo.According to the statement of European Union, April 2 elections do reflect the will of nation,. 

The European Union statement reads particularly as  following: "  Parliamentary elections took place in Armenia on 2 April. According  to the preliminary conclusions of the International Election  Observation Mission (EOM), the elections were well-administered and  fundamental freedoms were generally respected. However, the elections  were tainted by credible information about vote-buying, and pressure  on civil servants and employees of private companies, which  contributed to an overall lack of public confidence and trust in the  elections. The election result nevertheless reflects the overall will  of the Armenian people.

Whilst an unprecedented number of international and domestic  observers were provided an enabling environment in which to carry out  their work, international non-governmental organisations were not  invited to observe, in contradiction to the 1990 OSCE Copenhagen  Document. The International EOM welcomed the introduction of new  technologies, which the European Union supported through a project  successfully implemented alongside the Armenian authorities, as well  as reforms of the legal framework. Despite some minor technical  problems, fewer irregularities concerning ballot box stuffing, double  voting, counting and tabulation of results were recorded by  observers.

The European Union is committed to a stable, democratic and  prosperous future of Armenia.  Once the electoral process has been  completed, we look forward to working with the democratically elected  new Parliament and Government to strengthen our political dialogue  and continue our support to economic and social reform including on  the basis of the recently initialled EU-Armenia Comprehensive and  Enhanced Partnership Agreement and within the larger framework of  revised European Neighbourhood Policy and the Eastern Partnership." 

To remind, parliamentary elections were held in Armenia on Artil 2.   Five  political parties and four blocs participated to election  mentioned. This elections was the first after the Constitutional  Reforms of 2015.  According to Central Electoral Commission, the  distribution   of  forces is: RPA-771.247 votes or 49.12% Tsaroukyan  bloc-428.965 or  27.32%, Yelk bloc 122.049 or 7.77%, ARFD 103.173 or  6.57%/ Armenian Revival-58.277 or 3.71%, ORO-32.054 or 2.07%,  Congress PPA -25.957 or  1.65 %, Free Democrats - 14.746 or 0.9%,  Communist Party 11.745 or   0.75 %. The ruling Republican Party will  receive 55 mandates,  Tsaroukyan-30,  Yelk-9, ARFD-7
