STEPANAKERT–In a statement released on June 13–concerning the June 19 parliamentary elections in Mountainous Karabagh Republic (MKR)–the Armenian Revolutionary Federation "Movement ’88" coalition appealed to all citizens to use their voice to guarantee the dignity of the people of Artsakh.
"Once again–our country’s future is endangered. Certain servants of our ruling authorities? now seek to place in parliamentary seats pro-government candidates–and through them–prolong an atmosphere of acquiescence–license–corruption–bribery–power–authority–etc," the statement read.
Recalling victory through solidarity–the unbreakable will of the young–and at the price of blood shed by the country’s freedom fighters–the coalition urged all to "not be fooled by the empty promises of pro-government candidates," and in order to steadfastly advance the people of Artsakh–"raise our voice resolutely–and give votes to the ARF "Movement ’88 coalition–both in general and especially through its candidates–who have gone through the path of war–and who have been forged in the crucible of battle."
