/PanARMENIAN.Net/ `The observers are not obliged with a task to sit in
the polling stations and watch the process of election. We will watch
the process as a whole. The most important aspect for us is counting
of votes and delivery of the ballot-papers to the Central Election
Committee,' Leo Platvoet, head of the PACE observation mission, told a
news conference in Yerevan today. The investigation of facts of
bribing voters is not the aim of the mission, he added. `The most
important thing is trust of the people to the authorities and all
those who are responsible for holding a fair and democratic election.
No state, even a European one, can hold a perfect election. Albania,
Azerbaijan, Montenegro, Serbia can serve as an example. Violations are
fixed even in highly developed states like UK and Germany. Nevertheless
I should emphasize that specification of the rolls and complaints of
the citizens are the issues to be dealt by the Armenian law
enforcement,' Platvoet said.
