Official Yerevan congratulated Nazarbayev
Serzh Sargsyan today had a telephone conversation with President of the Republic of Kazakhstan Nursultan Nazarbayev.
Sargsyan congratulated Nazarbayev on his reelection, wishing him health and success, as well as peace and prosperity to the people of Kazakhstan.
Serzh Sargsyan voiced hope that the joint efforts aimed at developing the Armenian-Kazakh constructive partnership and the reliable ties between the heads of both states will benefit the strengthening of friendly ties between the peoples of Armenia and Kazakhstan.
Let us remind that based on preliminary results of the April 3 presidential elections, 70-year old Nursultan Nazarbayev won by 95% of the votes.
The OSCE/ODIHR criticized the elections, saying they were as flawed as the previous elections.
The opposition hadn't nominated anyone and had called on supporters to boycott the vote.
The other three presidential hopefuls had publicly expressed their support to Nazarbayev and their participation in the elections was formal.
