Politician: With high voter turnout, current government to no chance

ArmInfo.With high voter turnout, the current government will have virtually no chance of renewing its power. Arman Abovyan, a member of the political council of the opposition Prosperous Armenia party, stated this in a video  address.

For this reason, he called on voters not to slow down the momentum,  which as of 2:00 PM was very high compared to the previous elections  - 33.9%. The politician emphasized the need to mobilize Yerevan  residents, calling on them to put aside all disagreements and the  narrative that everything has already been decided, and to go to the  polls. He noted that the issue should be considered in two ways:  continuing to dance to the Turks' tune and threaten Armenians, and  building a prosperous country. Abovyan noted that everyone is tired  of the abnormal situation of recent years and emphasized the  importance of ending the atmosphere of hatred.

Against the backdrop of violations recorded by the opposition-from  the display of well-known symbols to ballots and attempts to steer  the voting process in the right direction-Arman Abovyan addressed the  Anti- Corruption Committee: "Do you have any questions for the  authorities?"
