YEREVAN. - In an interview with Irates De Facto newspaper, opposition
Armenian National Congress MP and former PM Hrant Bagratyan, who is
in the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (NKR)-or Artsakh-on an observation
mission for the NKR presidential elections on Thursday, noted that he
visited the polling stations of the four villages of NKR's Martakert
Region and he did not see any violations.
'"We spoke with the opposition candidate's proxies, they did not point
to [any] problems connected with the [voting] lists, election bribe,
[and] pressuring,' the former PM said, and added that the Artsakh
elections have no common ground for comparison with Armenia's recent
[parliamentary] elections.
'They are different worlds. It's impossible to compare. Here [in the
NKR] no one is complaining about the voting lists, election bribe,' the
opposition figure said. 'Perhaps the reason is the military situation,
which unites the people, perhaps it's the Artsakh people's character,'"
Irates De Facto quotes Hrant Bagratyan as saying.
