The National Assembly on Friday passed in the second—and final—reading the bills on making amendments and additions to the law on Armenia’s criminal code.
With these draft laws, it is envisioned to toughen accountability for electoral fraud in the country.
The bills were adopted unanimously by 82 votes.
In particular, these laws propose to prohibit any charity activities during election campaign seasons, and to bring to account not solely for vote buying, but also for pledging to buy votes.
