On the situation in Armenia
The Council of the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe (ALDE) Party convening in Sofia, Bulgaria, on 28 April 2018:
Welcomes:
• the organised and peaceful character of the popular demonstrations in Armenia that have taken place since 16 April 2018, which are based on the aspirations of the Armenian people for establishing fully democratic system of governance and exercising the right to elect its government through open, free and fair elections, devoid of pressures on voters and voter-buying.
Urges:
• the Armenian authorities to refrain from the use of force against peaceful
demonstrators and to engage in a meaningful dialogue with the nationwide
movement for democracy to ensure that the political crisis is solved through conduct of new parliamentary elections, which will enjoy full public trust.
