The Central Electoral Commission (CEC) of Armenia took the decision
not to stop the participation of the Marxist Party of Armenia in the
parliamentary elections.
The given issue was included on the agenda of the CEC session after
April 14, when the Leader of MPA David Hakobyan let majoritarian
candidate Tatul Manaserian use the free air time, allocated for him,
which is a violation of the Electoral Code of the country.
The leader of the Marxist Party David Hakobyan noted during the session
"he did not know that he was violating the law, and he will agree
to any decision the Commission takes, as he always highly assessed
the work of the given body and does not question the lawfulness of
its actions."
CEC President Garegin Azaryan stated that this time the Commission
will not apply sanctions against MPA, as this is the first case of
legislation violation by the given party. However, next time the
commission will have to turn to the court with a suit on cessation of
the participation of the Marxist Party in the parliamentary elections.
