Raffi Hovannisian, the main opposition candidate in the Armenian presidential election, rallied thousands of supporters in Yerevan on Wednesday to again reject the official vote results as fraudulent and demand President Serzh Sarkisian's resignation.
The rally began in the city's Liberty Square immediately after the expiry of a deadline that was set by Hovannisian for the reelected incumbent.
Hovannisian, who has declared himself the rightful election winner, demanded on Tuesday that Sarkisian meet and discuss with him "the transfer of power to the Armenian people." He reiterated that demand as he addressed the crowd chanting "Victory!" and "President!" on Wednesday. He also repeatedly referred to Monday's ballot as a "stolen election."
