    does not want the latest developments in Armenia to have a negative
    impact on the negotiation process, Khazar Ibrahim, the press secretary
    of the Foreign Ministry of Azerbaijan said to journalists on 3 March.

    According to Ibrahim, Azerbaijan does not interfere in the internal
    affairs of other countries and it contradicts the traditions and
    policy of official Baku.

    "The latest developments in Armenia are internal affairs of the
    country and we do not interfere with them at all," Ibrahim said.

    The presidential elections in Armenia were held on 19 February and
    Serj Sarkisyan, a candidate from the government won the elections
    by polling 50% of the votes. Some nine candidates were nominated for
    the presidential elections. Levon Ter-Petrosyan, the former President
    of Armenia was second in the elections with 21.5% of the votes. The
    Armenian opposition, dissatisfied with the outcome of the elections, is
    already holding mass protest actions for the fourth consecutive day and
    is on sit-down strike. They are demanding a live broadcast, punishment
    to those who falsified the outcome and a re-run of the elections.
