    Boris Frlets, head of observation mission of OSCE/ODIHR, voices his
    assurance in an interview with RFE/RL that "legal field is in place
    for free and fair elections." "Decent implementation of the legislation
    is needed at this phase," he said.

    Long-term observation mission published its interim
    report yesterday. The full text may be found at
    http://elections.panorama.am/am/observers/osce- odihr/announcements/2007/04/25/idihr-report2.

    Spe aking about the advertisement rates in the media, the authors
    deliver the concern of some political forces which cannot afford such
    rates. The monitoring of the media unveiled "large-scale coverage of
    government activities." Kentron TV demonstrated "clear preference for
    Prosperous Armenia Party," the report says. Public TV provided 43%
    of prime time to government and government issues were covered 57%
    of time monitored in H2.

    Speaking about the comment by president Robert Kocharyan that what
    Baghdasaryan did was a "betrayal" Frlets, said, "If the meeting was
    banned, the country could not be called democratic."
