    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ The municipal elections in Yerevan met European
    standards in general, head of the monitoring mission of the Congress
    of Local and Regional Authorities of the Council of Europe, Mr. Nigel
    Mermagen told a news conference on June 1.

    "We fixed progress as compared to elections to local government
    held in September 2008. Mission members attended 200-230 polling
    stations. All shortcomings will be reflected in the resulting report
    which will be introduced during Council of Europe's fall session,"
    he said, adding that the CoE wishes Armenia could further develop
    and strengthen democracy.

    The Congress of Local and Regional Authorities was the only
    international monitoring mission which observed the elections to
    Yerevan city Council on May 31, 2009.
