Rude in its form and erroneous in its contents the statement of the Department of State press-secretary office has nothing to do with struggle for democracy and represents overt pressure on Belarusian voters and an attempt to impede their right to freely express their will. All the necessary conditions for conducting free, fair and transparent elections are created in Belarus.
Electoral process is open, transparent and complies with the democratic standards.
All this makes it obvious that any speculations about the non-democratic character of the elections in Belarus are groundless. The elections to the National Assembly in which the majority of Belarusian voters is going to participate, should not be a subject for shallow and irresponsible verbal exercises of the Department of State officials. Belarus expects the United States of America to show a more responsible approach to developing relations with our country, worthy its great power status.
