The PAP Leader and the Ambassador discussed concerns raised in the report of the OSCE / ODIHR mission about the Constitutional Referendum held on December 6 and the steps which should be done to increase public confidence in the electoral process.

The sides also discussed the proposed amendments to the Electoral Code, which will be discussed at the National Assembly in the nearest future, referring to the mechanisms that will establish more effective legislative protection to prevent frauds and irregularities. The PAP Leader noted that the “Prosperous Armenia” party works on its own package of proposals to the Electoral Code, and actively participates in discussions of the Electoral Code.
