Video about falsification at Azerbaijan’s referendum groundless

By  Trend

The video, shared on social media, about the allegedly committed falsification during the referendum on amendments to Azerbaijan’s Constitution is groundless.

Some social media and sites shared a video that allegedly a falsification was observed during the voting process, but this information is baseless and false.

Such actions are aimed to cast a shadow on the successful conduct of the referendum.

The referendum to make amendments to Azerbaijan’s Constitution kicked off at 08:00 and wrapped up at 19:00 (UTC/GMT +4).

As many as 117 international observers – MPs from over 30 countries as well as observers from various international organizations, including the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) – have been accredited by Azerbaijan’s CEC to observe the referendum. The total number of the observers is around 53,000.

Azerbaijan’s President Ilham Aliyev signed a decree July 18 on submitting the draft Referendum Act “On making amendments to Azerbaijan’s constitution” to the Constitutional Court.
