Call on the foreign election administration bodies and international organizations to show solidarity with Ukraine and stop any cooperation with the aggressor
Today, Ukraine is selflessly repelling the armed aggression of the Russian Federation. Ukrainian Heroes give a decent rebuff to the enemy, even when it comes to sacrificing their lives. Civilians are suffering, children are dying, enemy missiles are destroying homes, kindergartens and hospitals.
Ukraine is currently a shield for universally recognized European values, which have been established for decades and are acceptable to the entire civilized world and which we are risk losing now.
The agressor's provocative attack on our country destroys all the principles of security and democratic world progress, including human rights.
Ukraine has been repeatedly criticized by relevant international organizations for not allowing persons of the aggressor state nationality to observe the elections in Ukraine. The whole world saw the cynicism and the real face of the Russian Federation! Democratic institutions, including election observation, were not used by Russia for the purpose they exist for. Under the guise of official observers being supposed to ensure the transparency of the election and referendum processes, there were spies and saboteurs coming to Ukraine, first those having the aggressor state citizenship, and later when such a possibility was prohibited at the legislative level (this, by the way, led to many accusations in violation of democratic standards) they were submitted by the puppet international organizations.
What the democratic world could not recently believe now became obvious to everyone! This country has no democratic experience or achievements to share! It is not going to apply any democratic principles because this contradicts its essence. Under such circumstances, cooperation in the field of elections is simply meaningless until the democracy is restored in this country.
In today's terrible conditions, this is not about elections. But it is the duty of all democratic organizations to assess the actions of the aggressor state, the terrorist state, the murderous state.
Therefore, we believe that the election administration bodies of democratic states and the relevant international organizations which ensure democratic processes, can not stay aside in the current situation.
So, WE CALL international organizations that provide democratic values in their activities and are engaged in elections and foreign election administration bodies:
- to isolate the aggressor state from participation in any relevant organizations;
- terminate cooperation with the election administration body of the Russian Federation;
- to prevent further membership of the aggressor state in international institutions until the restoration of democracy in this country.
We hope that all responsible organizations understand the inadmissibility of continuing membership or cooperation with the aggressor state for whom is leveled the notion of human rights and democratic principles of state development.
Today, we need to protect democracy in the world from destruction on all fronts!
