    PACE MONITORING COMMITTEE REJECTED TURKEY'S PROPOSAL

    Today at 11.30 Yerevan time the PACE Monitoring Committee sat to discuss
    three proposals, submitted by the Assembly delegations on the constitutional
    reform process in Armenia.

    The first proposal was advanced by the Turkish delegates. `The Constitution
    should be brought to the correspondence with international agreements, fix
    the state borders with all the neighbors thus promoting friendly relations
    in the region', they said. Shavarsh Kocharyan called the proposal absurd.
    Majority of the Monitoring Committee agreed with him and rejected the above
    mentioned proposal. During today's sitting the Turkish delegation is going
    to press for adoption of the proposal.

    Today to important proposals on amendments submitted by Dutch
    parliamentarian Jurgens on behalf of the Committee on Legal Issues were
    adopted. The first amendment referred to the change of sub-point 8 of point
    13 of the resolution on constitutional reform in Armenia. `The Parliamentary
    Assembly calls upon the Armenian leadership and the parliamentary majority
    to hold the referendum no later than November, 2005 and secure the reform
    effectiveness within reasonable terms and as soon as possible.'

    According to the second amendment, in case the referendum is failed PACE
    will make appropriate conclusions during the January session in 2006.
