Armenian Elections Aftermath: Armenia’s Central Election Commission finalized June 7 parliamentary results: Civil Contract won 49.7456% and 64 seats; Strong Armenia took 23.2710% and 29 seats; Robert Kocharyan’s Armenia Alliance got 9.9231% and 12 seats. Prosperous Armenia fell short of the 4% threshold at 3.9893%. Opposition groups say the vote was illegitimate and plan legal and political steps. CEC Re-vote Debate: CEC chair Vahagn Hovakimyan said invalidated polling-station results don’t automatically trigger repeat voting, arguing against distortions and “tactical voting.” Opposition Pushback: Ioannisyan and other critics call the CEC decisions “unlawful,” while Strong Armenia says it will sue over defamation and election-misconduct claims. Security Council Diplomacy: Armen Grigoryan met Azerbaijan’s Hikmet Hajiyev in Dilijan to discuss the peace agenda and trust-building; next meeting is expected in Azerbaijan. EU Support vs Russian Pressure: The EU is preparing over €50 million in aid and easier trade access for Armenian goods after Russia tightened restrictions, including on flowers. Humanitarian Move: Veronika Zonabend announced an international women’s humanitarian delegation to travel to Baku to restore contact between Armenian detainees and their families. Regional Context: Russia welcomed Armenia–Turkey normalization ahead of Turkish FM Hakan Fidan’s Moscow visit, with “3+3” regional cooperation highlighted.
