ArmInfo. We have repeatedly noted that the formation and strengthening of democratic societies in the region proceeds from the interests of regional stability,  development and prosperity. This was stated by the press secretary of  the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Armenia Anna Naghdalyan for a  request to comment on the parliamentary elections in Azerbaijan.  

According to the press service of the Armenian Foreign Ministry,  Naghdalyan, in particular, noted: "We got acquainted with the  assessments of international observers regarding the elections. As  noted in the preliminary report of the International Election  Observation Mission and in the assessments of the leaders of the  observation mission, the elections were accompanied by systematic  gross violations " The spokeswoman emphasized that Azerbaijan is  again trying to use the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict as a tool to cover  up the failure of democracy in the country and the extremely low  level of legitimacy of the elections.

"Azerbaijan's false and empty allegations that Nagorno-Karabakh's  representatives were elected as a result of these elections clearly  demonstrates Azerbaijan's distorted perception of democracy.  The  people of Artsakh did not participate in the elections of Azerbaijan  either now or throughout the history of the Republic of Azerbaijan,  "Naghdalyan said.

The latter also reminded that the people of Artsakh will exercise  their right to vote in their homeland on March 31 at the next  national elections, during which they will choose their  representatives - the President and deputies of the National Assembly  by will.
