Observatorii OSCE nu au fost invitați la alegerile din SUA din luna noiembrie

The U.S. decision not to invite OSCE observers for the upcoming midterm elections has raised concerns within the organization, marking a significant deviation from democratic practices. OSCE officials expressed regret over this unprecedented move, emphasizing the importance of independent monitoring for electoral integrity. The U.S. has historically welcomed OSCE observers since 2002, and this decision contradicts commitments made under the 1990 Copenhagen Document. Critics suggest this aligns with previous rhetoric from Donald Trump regarding election integrity. The absence of OSCE observers parallels actions taken by other countries, like Russia, that have restricted international monitoring.
