Armenian President Robert Kocharian met Thursday with Council of Europe Commissioner for Human Rights, Mr Thomas Hammarberg to discuss the post-election situation in the republic, the RA leader's press office reported.

"Unfortunately we failed to avoid undesirable course of events and the authorities had to take action. However, the situation is stabilizing and the emergency rule's limitations have been moderated twice," the RA President said.

The parties noted the importance of soonest normalization of the internal political situation.
