`We are not questioning the outcome of Armenia’s election,’ US Deputy
Assistant Secretary of State MATTHEW BRYZA announced.

Mr. Bryza has made his comments upon State Department representative
Edgar Vazquez’s statement that the United States is concerned over the
reports of problems in the vote count of

Armenia’s presidential elections held on February 19.

`But we are not yet in a position to declare all the concerns about
irregularities have been fully addressed. That will take a little bit
of time, as was the case with Georgia’s 5 January presidential
election. We have seen the statements by the ODIHR and Javier Solana,
and share those assessments,’ Matthew Bryza said.
