Kaieteur News – Leader and Presidential candidate of the We Invest in Nationhood (WIN) party, Azruddin Mohamed along with party executives and candidates met with the European Union (EU) Election Observer Mission (EOM) on Saturday.
The meeting is part of the Mission’s pre-election schedule of activities.
WIN in a brief statement placed on Team Mohamed’s Facebook page said that the discussions with the EU EOM, which was led by Chief Observer and Member of the European Parliament, Mr. Robert Biedroń focused on a range of critical issues concerning the integrity of the electoral process and the need to ensure free, fair, and credible elections.
“Key matters addressed included the legal framework guiding the elections, the impartiality and conduct of state institutions, and the broader electoral environment particularly the protection of political rights and fundamental freedoms for all Guyanese,” WIN reported.
According to the party, it remains firmly committed to democratic values and will continue to engage with international partners to safeguard the integrity of the electoral process and ensure that no institution or individual is allowed to abuse power or silence dissent.
On Friday, the European Union (EU) officially launched its Election Observation Mission (EOM) ahead of the September 1, general and regional elections.
The mission will monitor the electoral process and ensure transparency and credibility throughout. Some 50 observers will be deployed across the country on election day and will monitor campaign activities, including political rallies and social media platforms used by contesting parties.
“By deploying this second full-scale EU election observation mission to Guyana, we reaffirm the EU’s strong partnership with the country and our support for a transparent and credible electoral process,” Biedroń stated in a statement.
He expressed appreciation to the government of Guyana for inviting the EU to observe the elections. “Elections are more than ballots — they are the foundation of democracy. This is why we are here, with a strong team of observers, to assess the process with professionalism and impartiality,” he added.
The EU EOM will monitor all phases of the electoral process, such as the performance of the election administration, the legal and institutional framework, the conduct of the campaign, media coverage (including digital and social media), and the role of civil society. The mission will assess whether the elections comply with Guyana’s domestic laws and with international and regional standards for democratic elections.
