“GEORGIA'S TRADITIONS ARE REVOLUTIONARY”

Political scientist Alexander Iskandarian does not share the opinion of international election observation missions according to which Georgia’s elections were consistent with international standards for democratic elections and the irregularities did not affect the final outcome.

I think the assessment is preposterous as we speak of 2-percent decisive votes which gives serious grounds for contemplations and suspects. People publishing election results controlled the whole elections process.

Iskandarian states that the election results were not publicizes in due order. “People are invited to the president’s solemn oath before the Central Electoral Commission officially reveals the election results,” he says.

Iskandarian thinks Levan Gachechiladze, the candidate nominated by the united opposition, has won the elections. Generally, elections are less rigged in capitals as international observers mainly focus on the capital electorate.

“Georgia's elections will surely affect the Armenian ones as we are neighboring countries. But the influence will not be that great as the countries differ due to their political scenes and electoral traditions. Georgia's traditions are more revolutionary.”
