Former President Robert Kocharyan, who is leading his Armenia Alliance in an election bid for parliament, cast his ballot on Sunday and said that, in the event of victory, they would initiate “radical changes” in line with their manifesto.
Speaking to reporters outside the polling station, Kocharyan, who ruled Armenia from 1998 to 2008 and whose bloc is currently in opposition in the outgoing parliament, said he voted for a “protected, secure, prosperous Armenia with a national identity.”
He said his bloc has a high chance of winning.
Asked about expectations from the elections, Kocharyan said they include significant changes that would stop the “ongoing retreat from principles” and the “continued loss of sovereignty.”
