On the day after the election at the debriefing all election observers came together and we asked ourselves how the elections were, we determined that the elections were perfectly organised, they were fair, there were no irregularities. Such a statement Swiss MP, Daniel Fässler, made at the OSCE PA General Committee on Democracy, Human Rights and Humanitarian Questions session.

"The representative of Georgia informed us that no diplomatic relations exist between Georgia and Russia. This is the reason why Switzerland has a protective mandate and maintains diplomatic relations for Georgia in Russia and for Russia in Georgia. And therefore the situation in Georgia is very important to us.

Last year I participated as an election observer in the election observation mission. I simply want to remind you once again – when on the day after the election at the debriefing all election observers came together and we asked ourselves how the elections were, we determined that the elections were perfectly organized, they were fair, there were no irregularities. The result of the elections did not please many European states. That is not what we have to decide. The Georgian population decided this way.

What was disturbing was the fierce campaign before the elections, the fear campaign of the governing party which probably led to them winning the elections. That is something that must be criticized", - said the Swiss politician.
