    "It was declared at the winter session of the Parliamentary Assembly
    of the Council of Europe (PACE) that Armenian authorities demonstrate
    a political will and are willing to fulfill the commitments before the
    Council of Europe. However, time is short and we need to rush up to
    implement the legislative changes and complete the work by April,"
    MP, member of the ARF Dashnaktsutyun faction Armen Rustamyan told
    reporters today.

    "We have a distinct and short period of time before the sitting of the
    Monitoring Committee to be held in Valencia (Spain) on March 30-31,
    where we should have a clear say," Armen Rustamyan said.

    According to him, the working group set up to draft the amendments to
    Articles 225 and 300 of the Armenian Criminal Code has convened its
    first sitting today. Two members of the group have met with members
    of the Venice Commission. There have been initial discussions, since
    these legislative changes should correspond to the international
    experience. Resolution 1643 states also that the amendments should be
    worked out as a result of working discussions with the Commissioner
    for Human Rights and members of the Venice Commission.
