    Armenian President Robert Kocharyan and the minister for coordinating
    territorial administration and production infrastructures, Ovik
    Abramyan, have discussed the course of preparations for the
    forthcoming local government elections in October.

    Kocharyan demanded that steps be taken to conduct transparent and fair
    elections and to rule out any intervention in the electoral process,
    the press service of the Armenian president has told Arminfo.

    Earlier, Abramyan had assured journalists that there would be no
    intervention in the electoral process on the part of the government
    and the president. He said it was important for the government to
    ensure that the heads of local government are elected by the free will
    of the population and work well.

    "The election of community leaders and elders does not depend on their
    party affiliation," Abramyan said and promised that the elections
    would be free and fair.
