Lukashevich: OSCE PA refusal to monitor elections in Russia is politicized

This is how he responded to the speech of the OSCE PA President Margareta Sederfelt.

“Against the background of tactless remarks about the upcoming elections in Russia, we emphasize that the Parliamentary Assembly's refusal to monitor electoral processes in our country is not justified and politicized,” TASS quoted Lukashevich as saying.

Sederfelt said earlier that the OSCE hopes to send observers to the next elections in Russia, despite differences this year over the observation of the State Duma elections.
