Saghatelyan: Reports indicate police officers will attempt to vote at  multiple polling stations

ArmInfo.  Reports are received that n various provinces of Armenia, on-duty police officers will attempt to vote at multiple polling stations. This was stated to  journalists after voting by Ishkhan Saghatelyan, a representative of  the ARF Supreme Body and an MP from the "Armenia" alliance, as he  discussed the election falsification attempts recorded thus far.

According to the opposition politician, these attempts are being  carried out in two ways. First and foremost, Saghatelyan noted,  detentions are taking place, efforts are being made to obstruct the  operations of the political forces' campaign headquarters and their  staff, and interrogations are being conducted.  "Secondly, according  to media reports, open voting is being conducted, which is also  problematic.  Furthermore, we have speculation and even information  that police officers on duty in various regions will attempt to vote  at more than one polling station. I would like to urge them not to  engage in such criminal acts. Together with the members of the  Commission and our trusted representatives, we will do everything to  defend the votes of our compatriots," Saghatelyan emphasized.

The lawmaker expressed his conviction that all of this is being done  with a single goal—to intimidate voters. "However, this will not  work. I once again urge people to participate in the elections and  thereby decide the fate of our state. Pay no attention to the  statements being made today. This is a manifestation of the behavior  of an administration that has lost its confidence and the trust of  its citizens. I hope that tonight we will see proof of this," the  "Armenia" alliance MP stated.

Saghatelyan noted that he voted for Armenia, for the country's  stability, security, and development. "I expect June 7th to be a  turning point in the history of the Armenian people. Today, Armenian  citizens have the opportunity to completely close this shameful  chapter for our country and make a breakthrough in the history of the  state," the opposition figure believes.

Reacting to Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan's statement that  he would accept any decision of the people, Saghatelyan noted that  the Armenian premier's actions during the pre-election period, as  well as on election day itself, suggest otherwise. "Pashinyan's  actions during the campaign period and on election day show that, in  reality, he does not want to accept the people's decision. However,  he will be forced to do so," Saghatelyan concluded.
