Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said during a Facebook livestream that what he described as the “three-headed mafia” has no chance of achieving any political result.

Pashinyan uses the term “three-headed mafia” to refer to the leaders of three opposition political forces — Samvel Karapetyan of the Strong Armenia Alliance, Robert Kocharyan of the Armenia Alliance, and Gagik Tsarukyan of the Prosperous Armenia party.

“The three-headed mafia must be destroyed. And we have not forgotten and will not forget Serzh — the chief puppeteer of the Kaluga resident. The people clearly demand that the three-headed mafia be brought to its knees and destroyed,” he said.

He added that he had already warned during the election campaign that representatives of those political forces would want to leave Armenia and would not have such an opportunity.

“The three-headed mafia can do nothing, absolutely nothing, for one simple reason: it does not have, will not have, and has never had the support of the people,” Pashinyan said.

In another video, he stated that those involved in distributing vote-buying bribes would no longer be given any opportunity.

According to Pashinyan, some circles are effectively arguing that Armenia should apologize to individuals and political forces accused of distributing vote-buying bribes because the impact of those bribes was not fully reflected in the election results, and therefore they should be given a second, third, fourth, or fifth chance.

“Political forces that distributed vote-buying bribes will no longer be given any chance, and this has been decided by the people through their vote,” the prime minister said.

On June 14, the final results of the June 7 parliamentary elections were published. Civil Contract received 726,819 votes, or 49.7456%; Strong Armenia won 340,006 votes, or 23.2710%; and the Armenia Alliance secured 144,983 votes, or 9.9231%. The Prosperous Armenia party failed to clear the 4% threshold and will not enter parliament, receiving 58,287 votes, or 3.9893%.

Civil Contract will hold 64 seats in parliament, including three seats allocated to representatives of national minorities. The Strong Armenia party will receive 29 seats, including one seat for an Assyrian representative, while the Armenia Alliance will receive 12 seats.
