Pashinyan says people will win June 7 elections regardless of outcome

Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan told voters on Friday that, regardless of the results of the June 7 elections, the people of Armenia will win, since elections are not rigged in the country.

“Regardless of any result, in the upcoming parliamentary elections of the Republic of Armenia, the people will win,” he said at a campaign event for his Civil Contract party in the village of Parakar. “Because the people’s vote will not be falsified, will not be stolen, will not be distorted. I call on the people to go to polling stations on June 7, 2026, and uphold their power, their status as the supreme authority,” Pashinyan said.

He also stated that the main message of the Civil Contract party in the elections is peace.

“In these elections, our number one message, our most important message, is the following: peace has been established in the Republic of Armenia, and our task is to safeguard the peace of the Republic of Armenia. The people must uphold peace,” he noted.

Nineteen political forces are running for parliament in the June 7 elections.
