The Russian Foreign Ministry believes that the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe’s (OSCE) decision against sending its monitors to the parliamentary election in Azerbaijan this Sunday was obviously politicized, a senior Russian diplomat said on Friday.

Russian Foreign Ministry Ombudsman for Human Rights, Democracy and Rule of Law Konstantin Dolgov said addressing lawmakers in the Russian parliament’s upper chamber, the Federation Council, that "in response to Azerbaijani authorities request to cut the number of international monitors, whose number was excessive, the OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights made an obviously politicized decision not sending their observers at all”.

OSCE ODIHR wanted to send 400 observers to Azerbaijan.
