“Today, all decisions in Armenia are made by the people. This is modern Armenia and my political activity, as well as the activity of our team.”
Modern.az reports that Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said this during his speech at the pre-election campaign in the capital Yerevan.
He also said when he might resign:
“The moment the people decide that I should leave, I will leave without discussion. If 700,000 people, 50%+1% of voters, say, Nikol, stay, Nikol will stay. If the people say, Nikol, leave... who is Nikol not to leave? Nikol is a servant. Can a servant say no, I won't leave?”
Pashinyan said. The campaign for the parliamentary elections in Armenia, to be held on June 7, started on May 8 and will continue until June 5.
19 political forces have registered to participate in the elections: two blocs and 17 parties.
The ruling “Civil Contract” Party is running under number 16 on the list. The party submitted an election list of 283 candidates to the Central Election Commission, as well as a list of 10 candidates representing national minorities.
