"− I voted in favour of this important resolution on the preparations for the Russian State Duma elections in December. We Members of the European Parliament strongly deplore the decision by the Russian authorities to reject the registration of the People’s Freedom Party (PARNAS) for the forthcoming Duma elections in December 2011. It is not acceptable that Russia, which is one of the European Union’s most important partners in building strategic cooperation, does not guarantee free and fair elections – which are the basis of a democratic society and one of the EU’s main values. I would like to stress once again that the State Duma elections should be based on the implementation of the election standards set by the Council of Europe and the OSCE, and that the Russian authorities must allow the OSCE/Council of Europe to carry out a long-term election observation mission and must cooperate fully with it from its earliest stage. Those steps would send a signal to the EU and to the world that the Russian authorities are ready for the modernisation and democratisation of the country."@en1
