    Today RA Ombudsman Armen Harutyunyan called on the citizens of the
    Republic of Armenia not to sell their votes on the presidential
    elections on February 19.

    The Human Rights Defender noted that "if the elections are based
    on ideas and not the bribing of voters, we shall get a system where
    speaking about human rights will be simply senseless."

    The Ombudsman considers that "the political force that buys ballots
    will have no moral responsibility before the nation, will not be
    interested in the improvement of the socio-economic condition, and
    will not promote the real defense of the civil freedoms."

    "Our citizens must be the masters of their votes, their franchise
    right," Armen Harutyunyan underlined. He informed that there is a
    "hotline" at the Ombudsman's Office, through which the voters and
    observers can submit their complaints.

    The phone numbers of the "hotline" are: 53-76-51, 53-92-71, 53-88-31,
    53-76-34, 53-85-77, 091 00-88-17, 091 28-02-06.
