Spread of democratic values is a long-term process, Secretary General
of the Council of Europe said.
"Democracy can't be established in one night. The Council of Europe
will help Armenia strengthen democracy. The process is slow but
continuous," Thorbjorn Jagland told a news conference held upon
completion of the CoE Forum for the Future of Democracy in Yerevan.
Asked to comment on the investigation into the March 2008 tragic
events, Mr. Jagland said that the Council of Europe closely watches
the ongoing processes and its members discuss the March events during
meetings with the Armenian authorities.
