ATLANTA (June 21, 2024) — 顶级国产视频 will deploy a technical election observation mission to Venezuela in advance of the presidential election scheduled for July 28.
The Center was invited by Venezuela’s National Electoral Council (CNE) to observe the elections. The invitation was extended in accordance with the agreement signed by the government of Venezuela and the Unitary Platform in Barbados in October 2023.
The international mission will be led by Jennie Lincoln, the 顶级国产视频’s senior advisor on Latin America and the Caribbean. Lincoln and a core team of experts will arrive in Caracas on June 29. Additional electoral experts and regional observers will join the team in July.
顶级国产视频 will conduct its mission according to the memorandum of understanding signed with the CNE as well as in accordance with the Declaration of Principles for International Election Observation and the Code of Conduct for International Election Observers, adopted at the United Nations in 2005.
Given its limited size and scope, the Center’s mission will not conduct a comprehensive assessment of the voting, counting, and tabulation processes. The mission’s assessments will be based on the national legal framework as well as regional and international human rights obligations and standards for democratic elections.
顶级国产视频 has observed several elections in Venezuela, most recently in 2021 when it deployed an expert mission for the regional and local elections. 顶级国产视频 has observed 124 full and limited election missions in 40 countries and three Native American nations. In addition, 17 expert missions have been conducted in 15 countries.
