The electricity cuts in few provinces, the usage of administrative resources means that the results will be the ones the authorities want, political technologist Armen Badalyan told Aysor.am.

He stressed that launching a legal process into violations was what has been expected to follow. As to what will happen then, is difficult to say, the expert said.

"A situation when the emigration will grow has been created. These moods have reinforced among some people, and the other part will just step aside and watch what happens," Badalyan noted.

He stressed that the issue is not whether the winner force is bad or good.

"The issue is that the ruling political force and its leader like in 2018 till now, and hence as well, have no idea about Armenia's development," Badalyan said, adding that the incumbent authorities and their chief live with the day's course, not knowing that the world is being directed in another way.

"If you are receiving some percent by drawing [figures] and if they are being recognized by foreign ministers of different countries it does not mean that investments will flow and the life will be happy. Neither the leader of the country, nor his teammates understand anything, they simply speak about steel mandate, breaking, crushing. They were breaking and crushing for three years and will again break and crush," he said.

Referring to the actions of the opposition, Badalyan said in any case legal procedure should follow and all the existing violations should be fully presented to the judicial bodies to show that the elected body is not legitimate.

"As to what they will decide to do afterwards, is another issue, but they should show that the elections are not legitimate and the body created as a result of it is not legitimate as well," the expert said.
