Kocharyan about causes of defeat in election: “It was last bullet of revolution”

The “Armenia” block in a short time campaign did not have time to hold enough meetings in the villages of the country. This was announced at a press conference to the candidate for the Prime Ministers from the block, the second president of Armenia Robert Kocharian, the Armenian media written.

“Campaign was very short, we did not have time, and especially in rural areas we had pretty few meetings. And if you have noticed, the authorities recorded quite large results in the villages. People probably decided at the last moment And gone, voted for power, “he said.

Commenting on the question of the confidence mandate to the current authorities, Kocharyan noted that the factor of the return of the former authorities played a big role, since all former presidents of Armenia took part in the elections.

“We could not break this circumstance. Probably it was the last bullet of the revolution,” said Kocharian.

According to him, he from yesterday’s rally Pashinyan did not have the impression that something in their rhetoric and actions will change.

“If the authorities continue to act as they acted before, intimidating other repressions and vendates, we will very soon stand up with new extraordinary elections,” said Kocharyan.
