G. Aivazian intends to run in Azerbaijani presidential elections
Grigory Aivazian, Chairman of the Assembly of Azerbaijani Armenians, intends to nominate himself as a candidate in the presidential election in Azerbaijan.
“Armenians of Azerbaijan have proposed my candidacy and I am prepared to obey their will. Nevertheless, all elections in Azerbaijan should be declared null and void because the Armenian community is deprived of the opportunity to participate in elections,” Aivazian told reporters.
In his words, he will go to Baku if his safety is guaranteed. Aivazian is confident of his victory. “I will receive 60% of the votes,” he stated.
“If they refuse to register me, Azerbaijan will again prove to be a fascist state,” Aivazian said.
