PAP spokesperson Iveta Tonoyan stated this  at a press conference in Yerevan on June 12.

ArmInfo. The refusal of the Central Electoral Commission (CEC) of Armenia and the authorities to hold a re-run of the polling stations where the results were annulled would mean crossing all democratic red lines.
