European Parliament observer Petar Petrović expressed concern over the conduct of voting at several polling stations visited this morning. He noted that procedures were not being applied consistently and called on the relevant authorities to address the shortcomings promptly.

“While voting has generally proceeded peacefully, I am not fully satisfied with what we have observed so far. Greater attention is needed to ensure that electoral procedures are respected and that every voter can cast their ballot freely and in secrecy,” Petrović said.
