The organization of elections in Belarus can serve as an example for conducting election campaigns in France - Bernard Se

September 23, Vitebsk / Diana Kurilo - BELTA /. The organization of elections in Belarus can serve as an example for conducting election campaigns in France. This point of view was expressed in a conversation with a BELTA correspondent by Bernard Se, a member of the French Parliament, head of the "France-Belarus" friendship group in the Nord-Pas-de-Calais region, and an independent international observer. In Vitebsk, he visited polling stations No. 15, 16, 17. According to the observer, the high voter turnout indicates a good organization of the elections. The positive atmosphere is created by performances of amateur artists. "Excellent organization of elections, which are a celebration for voters. I will definitely talk about such an experience in France," he noted. At one of the polling stations, the independent observer met with colleagues from the observation mission of the Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE ODIHR). Bernard Se noted with regret that they did not share their impressions of the voting process in their conversation with him, citing that all conclusions would be made after the elections. "I will judge the elections in Belarus by my own impressions. I have not recorded any violations of the election code. I state that no pressure is being exerted on voters. They are given complete freedom of choice. This is an example of democracy. Belarus has earned its right to make its own political choice," he emphasized. -0-
