    Robert Kocharyan assured AGO Group head Ronald Wegener that he is a
    supporter to the constitutional reform and will convince the society
    that it is a positive change for the future. The President also noted
    that the referendum will be adopted as result of cooperation.

    Mr. Wegener said he rates the agreements achieved with the Venice
    Commission and the changes to the draft constitutional reform as
    positive. In his words, after the adoption of the draft in the second
    reading and its confirmation by the referendum "a new page in the
    Armenian history will open".

    He welcomed the adoption of the new principle of power division and
    formation of independent juridical system, the guarantee of which
    can become the formation of the Justice Council not presided by
    the President.

    Mr. Wegener also highlighted the election of the Mayor of Yerevan. He
    reminded that an agreement on the issue was achieved within the
    European Charter of local self-government, which called for the
    elective post of the Mayor.

    The Ago group members also paid attention to the problem of A1+
    TV Company. They did not touch upon the topic during the meeting
    with Robert Kocharyan but reminded the Foreign Minister of the problem
    available stressing that freedom of speech should be secured.
