АрмИнфо: Президентским выборам в Армении не хватало реальной соревновательности.

Ереван, 19.01.13. АрмИнфо.

Прошедшие 18 февраля президентские выборы в Армении по сравнению с предыдущими выборами были лучше, однако, учитывая слабую представленность кандидатов, им не хватало реальной соревновательности. Об этом отмечается в предоставленном АрмИнфо заявлении руководителя наблюдательной миссии Па ОБСЕ Тонино Пицулы.

Согласно предварительным данным Центральной избирательной комиссии, после подсчета бюллетеней со всех 1988 избирательных участков по итогам состоявшихся 18 февраля шестых президентских выборов в Армении действующий глава государства Серж Саргсян, набрав 58.64 % (861160) голосов избирателей, уже в первом туре одержал победу. Его основной соперник, экс-министр иностранных дел Армении, лидер оппозиционной партии "Наследие" Раффи Ованнисян получил 36.75 % (539 672 голоса), Грант Багратян - 2,15%, Паруйр Айрикян - 1,23%, Андриас Гукасян - 0,57%, Вардан Седракян - 0,42%, Арман Меликян - 0,24%. По предварительным данным ЦИК, на выборах проголосовало 1.521.407  или 68,18% избирателей. Недействительными признаны 50.992 избирательных бюллетеня.

European States "disturbed and deeply concerned at the deteriorating situation in Georgia"

A number of European states have said that they are "disturbed and deeply concerned at the deteriorating situation in Georgia". In a Joint statement of 11 July 2025 the Foreign Ministers of Belgium, Czechia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Iceland, Ireland, Latvia, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Spain, Sweden, the United Kingdom and the High Representative of the European Union commented on recent developments in Georgia We, the Foreign Ministers of European democracies, are disturbed and deeply concerned at the deteriorating situation in Georgia. We strongly condemn the recent, politically motivated, imprisonment and detention of the leaders of Georgian opposition, clearly designed to stifle political opposition in Georgia, a few months ahead of the local elections. Their detention, as well as arbitrary arrests and increasing repression of other Georgian authorities` critics, representatives of civil society, peaceful protesters and independent journalists, contribute to dismantling of democracy in Georgia and rapid transformation towards an authoritarian system, in contradiction to European norms and values. Recent legislative changes aim at stifling independent civil society and legitimate protest.
