    MASIS MAILYAN: VIOLATIONS OF ELECTION PROCESS IN PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS IN NKR NOT DECISIVE

    ARKA News Agency, Armenia
    July 20 2007

    STEPANAKERT, July 20. /ARKA/. The violations of the election process
    recorded during the presidential elections in the Nagorno-Karabakh
    Republic influenced the voting results but did not become decisive,
    said NKR Deputy Foreign Minister Masis Mailyan running for the post.

    According to Mailyan's statement, the presidential elections of
    July 19 became a marker in the NKR history and trial for the young
    democracy of Karabakh. "Considering the issues from this perspective,
    it should be pointed out that we fulfilled the main task that we had
    - to conduct alternative elections and thus maintain the democratic
    image of the NKR. Our contribution to this was the most influential
    which itself is a victory," Mailyan said.

    According to his assessments, his team did the best to give NKR people
    a real possibility to realize their own choice and conduct elections
    according to the law.

    "Our principle position in the issue of violations and operative
    reaction pursued the object of providing victory of law in our
    country," the statement said.

    Mailyan pointed out that in this situation and in the conditions of
    incomparability of resources, over 8ths votes of the electorate are
    a significant achievement for him.

    "During the pre-election campaign and during the voting numerous
    violations took place. Our pre-election headquarters turned to the
    CEC for four times before July 19 and almost 20 times on the day of
    elections. The violations, for sure, influenced the results of the
    voting, however, they were not decisive," he said.

    Mailyan thanked his electorate and all the people who supported him in
    the pre-election period. "I declare about my readiness to remain till
    the end next to those who risked for our common ideas. We will defend
    their rights if there are attempts to violate them," Mailyan said.

    The presidential elections in the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic took place
    on July 19. According to the NKR CEC, in the elections 71,285 people
    participated, which makes 77.36% of the electorate.

    According to the CEC NKR preliminary data, Head of the NKR National
    Security Service Bako Sahakyan leads the list - 57,828 people or
    85.42% of the electorate voted for him. NKR Deputy Foreign Minister
    Masis Mailyan runs the second with 8,270 votes or 12.21%.

    Over one hundred international observers from various countries, in
    particular, from Armenia, Russia, France, Italy, Belgium, Macedonia,
    Serbia and Czechia observed the presidential elections in the NKR.
