EuFoA publishes interim conclusion on Constitutional referendum in Nagorno Karabakh

EuFoA publishes interim conclusion on Constitutional referendum in Nagorno Karabakh

YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 21, ARMENPRESS. “European Friends of Armenia” international organization published an interim conclusion on the referendum over the new draft constitution held in Nagorno Karabakh / Artsakh Republic, press service of EuFoA told “Armenpress”.

The referendum on 20 February 2017 changes the local constitution to a strongly presidential system, and changes the name from formerly "Nagorno Karabakh Republic (Artsakh)" to "Artsakh Republic (Nagorno Karabakh)".

“From all we have seen and the data we collected across Artsakh, the referendum was well administered and seen by most citizens as an obligation to respond to the threat from Azerbaijan, especially in the light of the large-scale attack in April 2016. The result clearly represents the democratic choice of the people, while some improvements remain necessary to further increase local and international trust in future votes”,  Michael Kambeck, Acting Director of EuFoA, summarized.

A full report will follow in a few weeks.
