/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "While acknowledging the progress
made by Armenia towards compliance with its
obligations and commitments, in particular since the
adoption of the constitutional reform, the Assembly
today decided to pursue its monitoring procedure until
the current or proposed reforms in the fields of
electoral law, the media and the justice system have
produced tangible results," says the resolution
adopted January 23 by the Parliamentary Assembly of
the Council of Europe.

"The Assembly expects Armenia to demonstrate its
capacity to hold the parliamentary elections in 2007
and the presidential elections in 2008 in accordance
with international standards, not least with regard to
pluralist, impartial media coverage of the election
campaign," the document says.
