    ARMENIAN LEADER REMAINS LOYAL TO COALITION AGREEMENTS - SPOKESMAN

    Yerevan, 30 August: Armenian President Robert Kocharyan is against a
    complete switch to the proportional representation system (election
    on the party list), the Armenian president's press secretary, Viktor
    Sogomonyan, said in Yerevan today.

    Addressing a briefing in Yerevan, Sogomonyan said that the
    president remains loyal to his agreements with the ruling
    coalition. Under them, 90 parliamentarians will be elected under the
    proportional representation list and the remaining 41MPs under the
    first-past-the-post system, Mediamax reports.

    "The Armenian president considers that it is wrong for parliamentarians
    to lose "direct contact" with their voters which will inevitably happen
    after a complete switch to the proportional representation system,"
    Sogomonyan said.
