Today, on 17 July, the Constitutional Court published in an open session the decision on the case on the dispute related to the decision No. 184-A of the CEC “On Summarizing the Results of the 20 June, 2021 Extraordinary Elections to the National Assembly of the Republic of Armenia.”
After the publication of the decision, the representative of the “I have honor” Alliance Davit Harutyunyan said in a conversation with journalists,
“I think it was not a surprise for us at all, about which I announced in my final speech, because it was obvious how the process is conducted. The decision is legal, but made under political influence,” he said.
It should be reminded that the Constitutional Court decided to uphold the decision of the Central Electoral Commission No. 184-A “On summarizing the results of the 20 June, 2021 Extraordinary elections to the National Assembly of the Republic of Armenia.” The decision is final and enters into force at the time of publication.
Notably, “Armenia”, “I have Honor”, “Awakening” and “Armenians’ Homeland” parties are disputing the election results. Their applications are considered in a single joint case.
Judge of the Constitutional Court Edgar Shatiryan has been appointed rapporteur on the case. The respondent is the CEC, the body that records the election results. Related defendants are the RA Prosecutor’s Office, the Police and the Television and Radio Commission.
