“We share the position of OSCE and other international observers concerning violations during the electoral process. In particular, problems with freedom in mass media during the campaign, actions of the electoral commissions, particularly regional electoral commissions, usage of the state resources in support of pro-government candidates and problems, which oppositional candidates faced. We support all concern about violations, which international observers fixed”, said B. Gant.
