US embassy closely monitors voting process at Rasul Guliev's voting precinct

"We intentionally observe this precinct and already by the evening will know the results," said the ambassador Rino Harnish.

"Rasul Guliev has lived in the US for nine years and we understand that in case if he returns he will face criminal charges," said Harnish. The US ambassador voiced his hope that the election in this precinct will pass fairly and stated that about 40 groups from US embassy are observing the election process.

"In general, I think that today we have necessary circumstances for historical elections to take place in Azerbaijan," said Harnish.
