The authorities of Armenia are carrying out informational terror, abusing administrative resources, and using campaign techniques prohibited by law. They are committing criminally punishable actions that will receive an evaluation, including a legal one. This was stated by Artsvik Minasyan, a representative of the "Armenia" alliance, during a press conference.

Ishkhan Saghatelyan, another representative of the alliance, reminded that the alliance had issued two statements today. The politician emphasized that prior to the start of voting and throughout the day, the ruling administration has been carrying out large-scale repressions against the opposition, initiating searches at campaign headquarters and detaining individuals. The goal is to restrict the activities of the headquarters, Saghatelyan stressed. As a ridiculous example, he cited a case in Gyumri: a person was detained, driven around various law enforcement structures, and later told they were mistaken, apologized to, and released. Among the violations, the politician listed attempts to intimidate voters, pressure on the freedom of choice, "carousels" (voter fraud), instances where voters arrive with their own envelopes containing ballot number 16, bribery, and the distribution of money by representatives of the ruling power.

Artsvik Minasyan reported that passport offices are creating obstacles, especially for those who are citizens of the Republic of Armenia but do not have registration. They are being sent to courts, which either refuse to accept the applications or cause delays. For example, the case of Hovsep Abedi (Abedyan). The majority of Artsakh Armenians have been deprived of the opportunity to vote. In certain cases, election commissions do not accept police certificates and refuse to add people to supplementary voter lists. There are many instances of open voting and voter coercion/direction. Relevant applications have been submitted to the Prosecutor's Office and the Central Electoral Commission (CEC). He added that in the Debedavan community, two citizens were detained; one was charged, and the other was released. "In the village, there are operational groups of the NSS (National Security Service) and the Anti-Corruption Committee, waiting to detain supporters of the 'Armenia' alliance when they go to vote," Minasyan stated.

Agnesa Khamoyan advised citizens not to argue when people attempt to direct them, but to remember that they are alone in the voting booth and no one can monitor them—there are neither police nor cameras, and you do not have to report to anyone.

Ishkhan Saghatelyan emphasized that the volume of violations will be assessed in terms of how they impact the election results.

Artsvik Minasyan addressed international observers, reminding them that they had been warned about the anticipated violations, which they must now document.
