At the recent local and federal elections in Berlin, some problems that cause indignation and which can be spoken with irony. This is the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharov wrote in its Telegram channel.
Zakharova noted that 99 percent of polling stations were revealed to confusion with ballots, which were recognized as invalid more than 13 thousand votes of Germans. At the voting site, where 99 percent of citizens preferred a single-mandate candidate, ballots were also invalid.
In addition, the “unknown way” the voices of minors were taken into account, although they had no opportunity to vote at all, the diplomat said. In the future, there was also recalculation of votes, which led to a change in the final data.
“about the absurdity, which was working in areas with queues and inconsistency of the number of bulletins by the number of voters, I will not even start. This is who needs a queue, and not Russian – classic rubrics # etco-way,” the Berlin election of Zakharov appreciated.
In conclusion, she added the “most interesting” – there were only five OSCE ODIHR observers in Germany, since there are no problems there with elections there. “
previously became known that the OSCE revealed problems during the elections in Berlin. At the same time, the organization cannot draw conclusions about past events, repulsiating only from single incidents.
On September 26, the elections were defeated by the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SDPG) from 25.7 percent of the votes, and the Conservative CDP / Christian Union (HSS) block (CSS) scored only 24.1 percent. Candidate for German Chancers from SDPG Olaf Scholz wants to agree on the formation of a coalition before Christmas. At the moment, before coming to power of the new ruling coalition, the Chancellors of Powers remain for the Angel Merkel.
