    June 1, 2009

    YEREVAN, JUNE 1, ARMENPRESS: The CoE Congress of Local and Regional
    Authorities welcomes the municipal elections of held for the first time
    in Yerevan and expresses its satisfaction on the electoral process.

    During today's press conference presenting its initial assessments
    the Congress delegation noted that the elections were organized in
    accordance with European standards. The Congress delegation expressed
    its gratification that Armenia with its own abilities assisted the
    implementation of local democracy and the May 31 elections of Council
    of Elders registered a great progress compared with September 2008
    elections of local self governmental bodies held in the capital.

    The Congress observers also registered some flaws during the elections
    which cannot affect the legality of the election results but will
    find place in the final report of the mission.

    The CoE Congress of Local and Regional Authorities was the only
    organization which had an international observation mission. From
    May 3-6 the Congress delegates observed the pre-election procedures
    but the short-term observers were in Yerevan from May 27 by now.
