The Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) on
Saturday started deploying its short-term and long-term observers
across Armenia to monitor next Monday's presidential election of the
country.
The OSCE has some 270 observers led by OSCE ambassador to Yerevan
Heidi Tagliavini and they come from a dozen of OSCE member states.
The OSCE observation mission is scheduled to give a press briefing on
Tuesday next week on preliminary findings of this year's election. A
final report on the observation of the entire electoral process will
be issued some eight weeks after the election day.
Armenian Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan, who is of no relations to the
country's incumbent president Serzh Sargsyan, has invited the OSCE to
send its observers for the presidential vote.
The OSCE has observed eight elections in Armenia since 1996, including
the 2008 presidential and 2012 parliamentary elections.
