    OSCE welcomes contacts between Armenian authorities, opposition

    Yerevan, 13 May: Vladimir Pryakhin, the head of the OSCE office
    in Yerevan and ambassador, has welcomed the resumption of contacts
    between the authorities and the opposition in Armenia.

    "I call on both sides to engage in a genuine dialogue to settle
    the existing differences within the constitutional framework,"
    Pryakhin said. He said that "a dialogue is the best way to reach
    mutual understanding and develop political stability", Mediamax news
    agency reports.

    Pryakhin also called on the Armenian authorities to re-consider
    the cases of people detained during the recent demonstrations and to
    continue efforts to reform the Code of Administrative Violations. This
    would make it possible to eliminate the practice of administrative
    detentions, "which is incompatible with European standards", he said.
