Armenians in the national Parliament has gone done to 2% in the recent 2008 elections This and the other obstacles you have here indicate how the right to vote and free elections do not ensure that persons who belong to minorities will be effectively represented or will be able effectively participate politically unless minorities are not being completely set aside in the electoral lottery where they are almost consistently outvoted. The voices of minorities in the world of political representation, even in completely democratic systems, tend to be barely audible, their presence almost invisible, their interests too often unmet unless the obstacles to their political representation and participation I have described, especially those that are discriminatory, are removed. Merci.
