The development of the countries with limited resources like Armenia is possible in one way: with democracy. It is of vital importance for our country. The candidate nominated in the position for the Chairman of the Central Electoral Commission expressed this conviction in his speech.

The improving of the electoral system is a continuous process, and in its should be the provision of more transparency. Vahagn Hovakimyan expressed this conviction.

The candidate assured that in case of being elected he would not spare efforts in order to contribute to more developing the democracy in Armenia.

“I will work in the position of the CEC Chairman exclusively for the benefit of the Republic of Armenia, for the benefit of the reputation of the electoral system and rise of trustworthiness in order the elections in Armenia to be more free, fairer, more transparent and more competitive,” Vahagn Hovakimyan assured.

Answering to the deputy Hakob Aslanyan’s question, what is democracy for the candidate, Vahagn Hovakimyan said: “Democracy is a formula for the development of the state for me.”

The MPs Emma Palyan and Khachatur Sukiasyan positively assessed Vahagn Hovakimyan’s nomination in the position for the CEC Chairman, underlining that in case of being elected he will do his work at best.

The Chair of the RA NA Standing Committee on State and Legal Affairs Vladimir Vardanyan presented the biography and working path of the candidate for the CEC Chairman. He assessed Vahagn Hovakimyan as a person of principle, fighting, always evaluating the democratic values and searching justice.
