Not shadow government, but a bright one because the people have already won, Heritage party leader Raffi Hovannisian told a news conference at Liberty Square when asked if he approves the idea of creating “shadow government.” 

ANC member Nikol Pashinyan unveiled the list of 70 potential members of “shadow government” on Sunday at Liberty Square.

Raffi Hovannisian noted that no such list was submitted to him, adding that he is ready to hear every proposal, report and implementation mechanism.

The Central Electoral Commission of Armenia on February 25 announced the final results of the presidential elections in Armenia. According to them, Serzh Sargsyan won the elections with 58.64% of the votes, while his closest rival, Raffi Hovannisian, received 36.75% of the votes. Hovannisian disagrees with the election results and is holding mass protest actions. On March 4, representatives of Raffi Hovannisian and former candidate Andrias Ghukasyan handed an appeal to the Constitutional Court disputing the results of the February 18 presidential elections in Armenia.

Raffi Hovannisian began hunger strike at Liberty Square on March 10 evening.
