Nikol Pashinyan understands having no chances of reproduction through elections - ARF-D representative

The authorities stepped back from the idea of snap elections for three main reasons, ARF-D Supreme Body member Ishkhan Saghatelyan wrote on Facebook.

“First, the person that clang to the chair of PM understood that he has no chances of reproduction through elections. It is simply impossible.

Secondly, the same person understood that in case of going that way he will face serious issues with his own team as the majority of the “backpacks” who appeared in the parliament by chance felt the danger of losing mandates forever. Third, they think the Movement has faded away and in case of diverting the attention of the public by false agendas what they did will be digested and passed. So they decided to keep their power by forces trying to reinforce it by different methods. But here is where they are strongly mistaken as the populist-traitors may cheat the people once but not twice,” he wrote, stressing that now the citizens who were thinking to get rid of these evil authorities through elections will take to streets.

“And this is when "those proud with high spirit” will feel on their skin the public’s demand,” he noted, adding that the upcoming rally is scheduled for February 20 at 3 p.m.

He also added that neither of the opposition parties, including parliamentary ones were against snap elections.
