# OSCE/ODIHR (Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights)

The OSCE observation mission. After the 2022, 2023 and 2026 elections, it found that conditions were uneven and favoured the authorities, with pressure on public sector employees, misuse of public resources and biased media. At the 2023 elections it also recorded vote buying and ballot stuffing, and in 2026 it found the level playing field of the campaign “seriously undermined”.
