Arsen Julfalakyan urges Armenian citizens not to become complicit in  historical crimes, to vote, and to reject Pashinyan`s regime

ArmInfo.Former MP, Greco-Roman wrestler, and Olympic silver medalist Arsen Julfalakyan has called on Armenian citizens not to become complicit in historical crimes, not to stain their hands with blood, to go to the polls, and to reject Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan's rule.

"I have always been of the opinion that under no circumstances should this nation-  destroying scourge have been allowed to remain in power after the  surrender of Artsakh, let alone organize another election. He should  have been removed from power long ago. Unfortunately, we are faced  with reality as it is. And since the June 7 'elections' are  essentially inevitable, what should be done?

First, unequivocally reject the Civil Contract, and second, be sure  to participate in the elections so that they don't use your vote at  their own discretion. Remember the example of the capital. A member  of the Civil Contract, who received only 75,000 votes, became mayor  of Yerevan, a city of 1.2 million, precisely because of low voter  turnout," Julfalakyan wrote on his Facebook page.  Thirdly, he called  for not voting for forces that cannot cross the electoral threshold  (4% for parties and 8% for political blocs).

"Check out the latest social surveys and cast your vote for one of  the leading political forces. Most likely, there will be four such  forces (if the Civil Contract doesn't resort to new atrocities in the  meantime...), which will make your choice easier. And once again, no  matter what, reject the Civil Contract. Don't become complicit in  historic crimes; don't stain your hands with blood," he concluded.
