Nagorno-Karabakh's President Bako Sahakian on Tuesday praised the presidential election campaign in the Armenian-populated disputed territory and insisted that he is untroubled by strong criticism from his main challenger.
"Those who are participating or monitoring the election campaign can conclude that the campaigning is taking place in quite civilized conditions," Sahakian told RFE/RL's Armenian service (Azatutyun.am) in an interview.
Vitali Balasanian, a retired army general and the main opposition presidential candidate, has criticized the Karabakh authorities' handling of the race. He has accused them of pressuring people to vote for Sahakian's reelection and trying to obstruct his campaign. Speaking to RFE/RL's Armenian service on Monday, Balasanian urged the authorities to ensure that Thursday's election is democratic.
