NKR incumbent president Bako Sahakyan's reelection for the second
term will ensure another five years of independence for NKR, expert
Stepan Safaryan told ArmInfo, Friday. Commenting on statements by
international organizations and the OSCE MG co-chairs saying that
their countries do not recognize the presidential election in NKR,
the expert said: "Not recognizing the election those organizations
commit a mistake. Such assessments by international organizations
constitute threat to resolution of the conflict." The expert said that
over the last 20 years NKR has been conducting both presidential and
parliamentary elections proving its independence to the world. By
preliminary data, the incumbent president of the Nagorno Karabakh
Republic Bako Sahakyan won the election. The NKR CEC has received
ballots from all the 273 polling stations located in the country. By
preliminary data, Bako Sahakyan received 47,085 votes, which is 66.7%
of total. The second goes Vitaly Balasanyan, non-party parliamentarian,
national hero of NKR, with 22,966 votes or 32.5% of total. The
third candidate for president Arkady Soghomonyan, pro-rector of the
Stepanakert branch of Armenia's Agrarian University, received just
594 votes or 0,8% of total. The voter turnover was 72,833 people or
73.38% out of 99,190 registered voters.
