US Embassy: Transparency of the electoral process in focus at the start of talks in Neum

SARAJEVO, (Patria) - The US Embassy in BiH announced on Twitter about the talks that have been ongoing in Neum since yesterday regarding BiH's election legislation, stating that the focus of the discussions is on the recommendations of the Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights (ODIHR-OSCE).

"These reforms are clear. The priority is the supervision of election commissions and new technologies to prevent and detect electoral fraud, as well as stricter penalties to deter perpetrators from violating the law. We are pleased that our colleagues from ODIHR are also here today to discuss these reforms," the US Embassy stated.

"There is no reason for political leaders to oppose these common-sense changes, unless they benefit from the shortcomings in the system," the US Embassy in BiH stated.
