"I hope this will be a good election and we will have a legitimate President," Armenian Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanian said after voting.

"I voted for peace, consistency, security and development of Armenia and I think I did the right choice. I am hopeful that the nation will congratulate the winner and we will stride forward. It would be advisable to hold the election in one round but we should be ready for a second round anyway. I apprehend some destabilization but hope that everything will be all right," he said.
