PACE RATIFIED DRAFT RESOLUTION ON CONSTITUTIONAL REFORM IN ARMENIA
Today PACE discussed and ratified the draft resolution on constitutional
reform in Armenia adopted by the PACE Monitoring Committee.
PACE rejected two out of the three proposals. One referred to the Armenian
state borders submitted by the Turkish delegation. The second said, `In case
the referendum fails PACE will make appropriate conclusions during the
January session in 2006.’ It should be noted that Mr. Jerzy Jaskiernia
suggested that this amendments be rejected, as it would be incorrect to make
conclusions that the referendum is likely to fail again.
Only one amendment was adopted. It says, `The Parliamentary Assembly calls
upon the Armenian leadership and the parliamentary majority to hold the
referendum no later than November, 2005 and secure the reform effectiveness
within reasonable terms and as soon as possible.’ .
