"Armenia has reported a break in 2007 parliamentary elections,"
Alexander Iskandaryan, director of Caucasus Media Institute, said. He
said his assessment is based on the statement of international
observers and his personal contacts with them. Iskandaryan believes
the assessment of the Armenian elections was "the best on countries
like Armenia." The report says "Armenia largely complies..." "This
is second level highest assessment," Iskandaryan told reporters.
He said the next level is to say "comply" which is used to describe
elections with strong democratic traditions. So, Armenia enjoys the
highest possible assessment produced by international observers. He
said this will strengthen Armenia's international standing.
"Armenia is in much favorable conditions as compared with Azerbaijan,"
Iskandaryan said saying Azerbaijan has been concerned with the high
assessment of the Armenian elections produced by the international
observers. In his interpretations, having political problems, Armenia
and Azerbaijan try to compare with each other. He said Azerbaijan is
jealous of OSCE statement on the Armenian elections.
