Yerevan /Mediamax/. Special Representative of the European Union in
the South Caucasus Peter Semneby believes that "there are many bright
candidates in Armenia, and this is a very positive factor, which leads
to the increase of interest of the population for political processes".
Mediamax reports that Peter Semneby said this in an interview to the
Russian "Kommersant" newspaper, published today.
"There are, indeed, problems with the media, and the most part of
the complaints here is from the candidates. Those complaints will be
considered in detail", the EU representative stated.
Answering the question on the role of the "Russian factor" in the
election campaign in Armenia, Peter Semneby stated: "It is obvious
that between Armenia and Russia there are close contacts, but I do not
want to exaggerate the influence of the given factor on the electors".
