    PARLIAMENT COMMITTEE TO CONSIDER ADOPTING 100% PROPORTIONAL VOTING SYSTEM

    Tert.am
    31.01.12

    The National Assembly's Committee on State and Legal Affairs is going
    to consider the proposal on adopting a 100% proportional representation
    system in Armenia on Wednesday.

    Speaking to Tert.am, the head of the Committee, David Harutyunyan, said
    he sees no problem about the initiative proposed by the parliamentary
    opposition and the coalition Prosperous Armenia party faction/

    Harutyunyan was recently reported to be coordinating the ruling
    Republican Party's pre-election activities with international
    observers.

    Asked whether the international observers monitoring the electoral
    processes in Armenia are going very strict about irregularities,
    he said: "I don't understand what you mean by saying very strict. It
    sounds like being semi-pregnant."

    Harutyunyan, who is the head of Armenia's delegation to PACE, agreed
    that the there is always a difference between the interim and final
    reports submitted by international observation missions. "But that
    does not imply a change of standards," he noted.

    As to whether the foreign observers are going to prolong the term
    of their mission this time or have more representatives in Armenia,
    Harutyunyan said he was unaware of such plan.
