    The presidential election in Nagornyy Karabakh Republic passed in the
    conditions of high political competition and legal equality in access
    to mass media, the statement by the Russian Monitoring Mission says.

    Several shortcoming in the work of the electoral commissions mentioned
    by members of the mission were more of the organizational and technical
    nature. Members of electoral commissions and representatives of local
    authorities took measures for their operative removal. The mission
    positively assesses the voting stages. Voters were personally
    voting. The Monitoring Mission did not notice any incidents
    or violations which would affect free will expression. The votes
    accounting process at the ballot stations was transparent. The monitors
    had an opportunity without any obstacle to study documents of the
    election, samples of ballots, solutions of the electoral commissions
    and protocols of sittings.

    According to the results of the voting, the Russian Monitoring Mission
    recognizes the presidential election in Nagornyy Karabakh Republic
    on 19 July 2012 legitimate, transparent, free, open, democratic,
    fair and fully meeting the electoral legislation of republic as well
    as international standards for democratic elections.

    The fifth presidential election in Nagornyy Karabakh Republic
    taken place on the alternative basis with participation of the
    three candidates, are evidence of consistent actions on the way of
    enhancing the institute of democratic elections and development of
    civil society. The activeness of voters, their motivation and civil
    position are evidence of their deep involvement in the democratic
    process. The participants in the mission think the election are
    very much important for the negotiating process within the OSCE
    Minsk Group as well as in general for effective functioning of the
    power structures of Nagornyy Karabakh Republic. The efforts directed
    at the building and improvement of the democratic electoral system
    require adequate attention from the side of the OSCE MG co-chairmen
    and the world community in general. This would promote settlement of
    the Azerbaijani-Karabakhi conflict as soon as possible, as well as
    establishment of stability and truly strong peace in the region.
