Fwd from @ 📝Changed their minds about letting the party through📝 sharp change in results in Armenian elections The preliminary results of parliamentary elections in Armenia, in which the ruling party "Civil Contract" failed to secure 50% and three more opposition formations entered parliament, did not satisfy Nikol Pashinyan and his patrons. The Central Election Commission sharply changed the figures, and now the party "Prosperous Armenia" has a result of not 4%, but 3.99%, which is already below the electoral threshold. The initial results would have allowed Gagik Tsarukyan's party to receive five mandates in parliament, but this will not be allowed. "Prosperous Armenia" entering the National Assembly would have seriously complicated things for Pashinyan. However, now, thanks to an extremely inconsistent electoral law, "Civil Contract," which failed to secure even half the votes, formally receives a constitutional majority of 60% in parliament and will form its own cabinet. ❗️All of Pashinyan's menace came down to preventing a fourth party from entering parliament, depriving his opponent of 0.01% of votes. However, the elections clearly showed that "Civil Contract" did not receive a public mandate for unilateral decisions. The Armenian Prime Minister will be reminded of this trick for a long time, as well as his promise to resign if 300,000 Armenians spoke out against him. More than 500,000 people spoke out against him, but Pashinyan will certainly not part with power because of this. #Armenia #elections 🗻@caucasar – don't think about the Caucasus condescendingly 💸Support us Original msg
