    COMMON APPROACH: ARMENIAN PARLIAMENT UNANIMOUSLY PASSES LAW ON ASSISTANCE TO BORDERLINE COMMUNITIES

    A rare display of unanimity took place in the Armenian parliament
    today as all of its members present in the chamber (100 out of 131)
    - representing both the ruling Republican Party of Armenia and
    opposition factions - voted in favor of a law on assistance to
    borderline communities.

    The law passed in the first reading concerns a total of 31 communities
    and envisages partial compensation of expenses on utilities, including
    natural gas, electricity and irrigation water supplies. It also
    provides for full compensation of the land and property taxes.

    The Armenian parliament showed similar unanimity last August in the
    wake of the escalation of tensions in the Karabakh conflict zone and
    along the Armenian-Azerbaijani border. Ruling party and opposition
    lawmakers then also made joint trips to the border communities in the
    northeast of Armenia living under regular fire from the Azerbaijani
    side.
