"According to EU election observers, the elections held in the Democratic Republic of Congo in November 2011 were not transparent. Numerous irregularities and cases of fraud were detected. The Congolese Government also rejected all recommendations concerning measures to ensure a regulated and orderly election. The population did, however, avail themselves of the opportunity to vote. In November, the turnout was 80%, suggesting that there is heightened interest among the population to drive forward the democratic process. I voted in favour of the resolution because I agree that elections are not, of themselves, sufficient to create the necessary conditions for a democratisation process. I also share the view that the social and economic development of the country and upholding the population’s basic rights are crucial for a functioning democracy."@en1
