"Mr President, the European Union, as Russia’s direct neighbour, has followed with particular interest the election process and widespread ongoing protests in Russia on both the state Duma and presidential elections. We observed the so-called carousel voting on election day, vote fraud, and other irregularities and shortcomings reported by international observers. Taking all this into account, as well as the announcement of potentially competitive candidates and TV broadcasting during the election campaign, which was 90% dominated by one candidate, we cannot draw any other conclusion than, firstly, that the presidential elections were neither free nor fair and, consequently, the legitimacy of the President-elect is questionable. Secondly, the Russian people are fighting for free elections and they deserve our support and solidarity. Finally, arrests of dozens of peaceful protestors across Russia during demonstrations after the disputed victory of Vladimir Putin deserve our condemnation. All this has to be stated in our resolution."@en1
