The US Embassy in Armenia welcomed today the parliamentary elections,
`congratulating the Armenian nation for holding better elections as
compared to the previous ones,' Mediamax reports.
It is noted in the statement disseminated by the US Embassy that `we
share the satisfaction of the international observers with the fact
that both legal and technical electoral infrastructures have been
greatly improved.'
`We are proud that our partnership with governmental and
non-governmental structures of Armenia yielded good results. We value
the work of many election officials devoted to the unbiased
fulfillment of their task. We share the comment of ODIHR Ambassador
Frlec that these elections are not over yet.
At this point our position is as follows: `These elections were a
considerable improvement towards international standards. Part of the
electoral process was the detailed investigation of the problems
connected with the elections, including the numerous accusations of
election frauds which could affect the outcome of the polls.
We hope that an active probe into these accusations of election frauds
will be launched,' the statement of the US Embassy reads.
