As he noted, no complaints as to electoral violations were reported in any electoral district. A representative of Heritage-Free Democrats parliamentary group Khachatur Kokobelyan, in turn, noted that “black PR” or political games aren’t practiced in NKR. According to ARF Dashnaktsutyun member Armen Rustamyan, NKR presidential polls prove the republic is following the right path. “The countries unwilling to recognize Artsakh’s independence for whatever reasons will do it sooner or later, regretting to have been late. NKR elections may serve as an example to unrecognized states. Artsakh’s people are following the right path and nothing will make them stop,” Rustamyan said.
