Member of NA monitoring mission, deputy from “Heritage” faction Larisa Alaverdyan mentioned in the press conference held in Stepanakert yesterday that the opposition played a great role in the presidential elections. “The oppositionist candidate who is the second by the results of voting, showed that democracy is established not only in famous and big countries but also in small and unknown countries like Karabakh”. He also added tat he highly appreciates this step, second place isn\’t a defeat for the opposition.
Later Masis Maylyan published his announcement where it is mentioned: “We have done of our main problems: to hold alternative elections and keep the NKR democratic image.Our input in this was the most forcible one, which is already a victory. Our team did its best giving our citizens the true opportunity of true elections and hold elections within the framework of legality”. Masis Mayilyan also declared that 8 thousand voted he had received was a great achievement: “Different frauds exerted influence on the results of elections but we also should say that it wasn\’t decisive. We offered alternative to the people. In our words it was election between today and tomorrow. The majority of the population preferred today. We understand that the current atmosphere exerted its influence on the moods of people, but at the same time we should agree that people realized what they wanted. It is their right. We respect that right and accept their decision. I respect my people\’s election”.
In answer to “Aravot\’s” question that Masis Mayilyan\’s headquarters had detected a lot of frauds, he said: “Our pre-electoral headquarters has analyzed what happened in polling stations, counted how many votes there are etc. And the analyze showed that there was an influence indeed but it didn\’t play a decisive role”. “Azatutiun” b/s correspondent asked whether he would keep on fighting for the registered illegalities, and Mr. Mayilyan noted: “We have done the part of our business. We have applied complains to the CEC, which adopted the part of facts. It seems to me that the second part of the work the CE should compete to prevent further illegalities in the future”.
The correspondent of “Hayk” was interested: “Are you ready to work with Bako Sahakyan after his declaration that the political culture demands to assign his supporters in the positions first of all”. Masis Mayilyan\’s answer was: “First of all he should offer me. Second, I should say what team does Bako Sahakyan have and make my decision after”. Then he noted that he participated in the elections not for a position but for the aims which were mentioned in his declaration.
