October 19 Head of the Armenian delegation to OSCE Parliamentary
Assembly, NA Vice-Speaker Vahan Hovhannisyan and member of the
delegation Samvel Nikoyan met with the US Ambassador to the OSCE
Julie Finley.
Mrs. Finley emphasized the importance of conducting the forthcoming
elections in Armenia in compliance with democratic standards,
stressing the necessity of OSCE observation mission's long-term stay
in Armenia. In Mrs. Finley, opinion, the presence of observers in
the preelection process is as important as in the election period.

holding free and fair elections in Armenia, noting that soon the
amendments to the Electoral Code will be adopted.
During the meeting reference was made to the activity of the
Central Electoral Commission. The parties stressed the importance of
completeness and accuracy of voting lists. Other questions of mutual
importance were discussed as well.
