John Prescott (United Kingdom, SOC) and Axel Fischer (Germany, EPP/CD), co-rapporteurs for the monitoring of Armenia by the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE), were scheduled to make a fact-finding visit to Armenia on July 19.

However, Fischer arrived in Yerevan alone.

The PACE co-rapporteur has already met with members of the Armenian delegation to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe.

The visit aims to discuss latest developments regarding the normalisation of the political environment, as well as the reform programme started by the authorities, in particular election reform ahead of the 2012 parliamentary elections.

Prescott did not come to Yerevan for some technical reasons, the PACE press service reported.

PACE will consider the issue of Armenia in its fall session.
