Members of precinct election commissions are participating in the campaign for Pashinyan's Civil Contract party.

As reported by Kavkazsky Knot, the Investigative Committee of Armenia has opened criminal cases against 37 individuals accused of voter bribery, including those implicated in the case of Samvel Karapetyan's previously arrested associate, Alik Aleksanyan. 25 individuals have been detained.

Elections to the National Assembly of Armenia will be held on June 7. According to analysts, the parties of Samvel Karapetyan, Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, and former President Robert Kocharyan will be key competitors in the elections. Samvel Karapetyan's Strong Armenia, along with Robert Kocharyan's Armenia bloc and Gagik Tsarukyan's Prosperous Armenia, is one of the most pro-Russian parties in the Armenian parliamentary elections.
