Today, on my own initiative, I had a phone conversation with President Gianni Buquicchio of the Venice Commission. Armenian Minister of Justice Rustam Badasyan wrote this on Facebook.

"During the phone conversation I touched upon the latest developments in connection with the constitutional amendment and referendum appointment," he added. "I have also expressed the readiness of the Armenian side to continue close cooperation with the Council of Europe and the European Commission in the future, too, in the domain judicial reform."
