12 сентября 2016

About 800 international and more than 32 thousand domestic observers followed the parliamentary elections in Belarus.

All foreign experts note transparency and openness of monitoring conditions. For most of them this is not the first visit to Belarus. Many observers have repeatedly performed the honorable mission in other countries.

Sergei Lebedev, head of the mission of CIS observers, says that no abuse and no violations of the most important legislation of the Republic of Belarus have been revealed. Our legislation does not fully correspond to the western one, however, it is designed to meet our own interests. Observers see new elements that bring our legislation to the generally accepted norms of the electoral law.
