Yerevan /Mediamax/. Head of OSCE/ODIHR election observation mission Urszula Gacek said today that Armenia’s snap parliamentary elections on December 9 were unprecedented.

“The fundamental human rights and freedoms were protected during the elections. No persecutions were registered towards voters or candidates,” Urszula Gacek said.

 

According to her, people demonstrated confidence in the election process. 

 

“I can tell you that Armenia has never seen similar elections,” she emphasized.

 

Urszula Gacek noted that a number of shortcomings have also been registered, related to regulations in legislative field.
