Συντάχθηκε απο τον/την Μπάμπης Παπαδάκης
Concerns about the conducting of fair and free elections on June 28 were the main subject of discussions held between Foreign Minister Dora Bakoyannis, in her capacity as chairperson of the Organisation for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE). She made the comments after a meeting with her Albanian counterpart Lulzim Basha, noting the contribution of OSCE missions to the gradual modernisation and democratisation of western Balkan states. The OSCE's role in Albania will be particularly important, she pointed out, in the coming period. On his part, Basha indicated to Bakoyannis his government's desire to cooperate with the OSCE in holding free and fair elections, adding that his country had invited a large OSCE delegation of observers to monitor the ballot.
