Harassment of Independent Citizens’ Election Observers – Challenges for international Institutions and Civil Society

EPDE is alarmed about the increasing harassment of citizens’ election observers in the ODIHR region. EPDE members in Azerbaijan, the Russian Federation and Belarus are affected by intimidation of staff members, criminal persecution, non-registration of the organisations or of labelling of the organisation as “foreign agents”. Authoritarian regimes “copy and paste” laws to restrict the watchdog function of independent election observers. EPDE has organised a discussion on the Human Dimension Meeting of ODIHR in Warsaw 25 September 2015.
