The Hayots Hayrenik (Armenian Homeland) Party, which was among the political forces running in the June 20 snap parliamentary elections in Armenia, has challenged the election results in the Constitutional Court.

The top court received the party’s election appeal on Friday, its spokeswoman Eva Tovmasyan said on Facebook.

The Constitutional Court earlier received the appeals of the Armenia bloc and the Zartonk (Awakening) National Christian Party asking the court to overturn the election results.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
