Inte enligt OSCEs egna officiella sida,
och jag vet vem jag litar på om jag måste välja mellan Luka och OSCE.
Att observera ett val kräver såklart förberedelser, att skicka en inbjudan dan innan är samma som att inte ha skickat en inbjudan.
Så här säger de på sin hemsida:
“The lack of a timely invitation more than two months after the announcement of the election has prevented ODIHR from observing key aspects of the electoral process,” ODIHR Director Ingibjörg Sólrún Gísladóttir said. “These include areas we have noted in recent observation reports as requiring improvement in Belarus, such as the formation of election commissions and registration of candidates. It is clear from the outcomes of these processes that the authorities have not taken any steps to improve their inclusiveness.”
Vidare:
"Belarus announced the forthcoming presidential election well over two months ago," OSCE spokeswoman Katya Andrusz told Euronews.
"And the Belarusian authorities are aware that ODIHR needs a timely invitation in order to make a full assessment of the election process. The formation of election commissions and registration of candidates has already been completed, and these are specific areas ODIHR recently identified as requiring improvement."
ODIHR published a statement announcing its withdrawal from the observation mission on July 15 because it hadn't been formally invited. It was only then that Minsk sent an invitation, according to Andrusz.
It's the first time ODIHR won't be monitoring a Belarusian nationwide election since 2001.
Så man drog på det så att det inte skulle bli möjligt. Något man naturligtvis visste, annars hade man bjudit in dem i samband med att valet utlystes (när det Moskvatrogna CIS fick inbjudan).
