“Imitated dialogue or sarcasm by Sargsyan”
"The first rough violation of the Armenian Electoral Code was made by the President of the Cassation Court, who proposed the former chairman of the Central Election Commission (CEC) Garegin Azaryan as CEC member," Armenian Center of Parliamentarism said in a statement.
"Azaryan's nomination as CEC member was rejected by Ombudsman Karen Andreasyan who explained his decision by CEC President's inability "to account for his political neutrality."
The most ridiculous is not that Andreasyan later approved Azaryan's candidacy as CEC Chairman but that Azaryan acted as a coalition expert during the recently launched government-opposition talks - an activity prohibited by law.
Apparently, Azaryan could not have been involved in the talks without authorities' consent. So what is this - imitated talks, sarcasm by Sargsyan or power testing?
This is a new alarm signaling to the fact that real problems are left out of the agenda and calling attention to gross election fraud.
In the given situation the personality of the CEC chairman is not as important as it is essential to address election fraud in order not to spoil the "dialogue," reads the statement.
