In view of the first elections for the City Council in Yerevan, which
will be held on 31 May 2009, a 3-member delegation of the Congress
of Local and Regional Authorities of the Council of Europe will visit
the Armenian capital city.
These elections will be the first to be held since the amendments
to the Armenian Constitution of 2005. These amendments gave Yerevan
the status of a "community", providing for the election of the City
Council and - as a consequence - of the Mayor, who was previously
appointed by the Government.
Congress Vice-President Fabio Pellegrini (Italy, SOC), Michel Guégan
(France, NR) and Nigel Mermagen (UK, ILDG) will hold meetings with
candidates running for the election of mayor, representatives of
government, opposition and electoral bodies, the Armenian Congress
delegation, as well as with the media and NGOs.
