ArmInfo. The Venice Commission and the OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions for Human Rights (OSCE / ODIHR) published a statement on amendments to the Electoral Code of Armenia.
Minister of Justice Rustam Badasyan announced this on his Facebook page. Thus, the Venice Commission and the OSCE / ODIHR noted that having considered the package of amendments to the EC, within the framework of which the RA refuses the "rating" electoral system (election of candidates for lawmakers by territorial lists), they came to the conclusion that this, in fact, does not change the electoral system, moreover, simplifies it and can be applied in the course of early elections.
