The Armenian and Georgian Central Election Commissions (CEC) signed on October 28 an agreement, under which the Armenian CEC will loan Georgia 1000 of Armenia’s transparent ballot boxes for use during the 2 November parliamentary elections.
The OSCE Office in Yerevan worked together with the OSCE Mission to Georgia to make this loan possible.
“This is a good example of supportive regional co-operation in the Southern Caucasus in support of democratic elections”, says Ambassador Roy Reeve, Head of OSCE Mission to Georgia.
As the press release issued by the OSCE Mission to Georgia reads, under the agreement between the two CECs, following the elections in Georgia the boxes will be returned to the Armenian CEC for further use in Armenia.
