The results of these elections are not light in the end of the tunnel, but a darker obscurity: “The I Have Honor alliance” (Pativ Unem Dashink)
Dear compatriots,
Another phase that was very important for our country passed. Unfortunately, as foreseen, these elections failed to become elections for the provision of security for Armenia and Artsakh, restoration of the country’s sovereignty, and recuperation of our lost honor.
The results of these elections are not light in the end of the tunnel, but a darker obscurity.
The elections failed to become a political process, and failed to become a roadmap for keeping Armenia back from the edge of a cliff. Instead, we saw cases of illegal clampdown of government forces on opposition, unjustified search by the police in apartments and election headquarters of opposition powers, arrests, as well as numerous evident cases of impeding the work of the opposition before and during the elections, coupled with evident illegal actions of the government to use administrative resources and direct voters.
Through these shameful elections the problems of people will not only stay unsolved, but new and more difficult problems will be caused for the secure, stable and honorable future of Armenia and Artsakh, and our national interests will be compromised by these defeatist authorities against other interests.
We announce that we do not recognize the published results as a legitimization of the recent territorial and human losses of Artsakh war, as an establishment of Armenia’s role in geopolitical trade as a small coin, and as a national defeat by fake and immoral reality.
In the meantime, we are sure that the real opposition shall accept its mistakes and recognize the things done wrong as well.
It was not correct to go toward elections in a post-war shock and crisis situation in the country, but it is a bigger mistake to put the entire blame of failure on the society.
The struggle will go on. We do not have a right to leave the sacred land of our grandfathers and the future of our children on that land to traitors that lost the country’s sovereignty and misled the society.
Our future actions and steps will be based on this logic.
In the meantime, we thank our all honorable people who voted for the alliance. Your carrying and honorable votes, expectations and hopes will be guiding us through our decisions.
“The I Have Honor alliance” (Pativ Unem Dashink)
