On 14-15 April the meeting of the OSCE PA Bureau took place in Copenhagen. At the meeting the Bureau has decided to reactivate the 1997 Co-operation Agreement between the ODIHR and PA OSCE that guides election observation by the OSCE and is needed to ensure that the OSCE speaks with one voice in assessing elections among its 57 participating States.
Ambassador Ihor Prokopchuk, Ukraine’s Permanent Representative and Chairman of the Permanent Council, addressed the Bureau on behalf of the Ukraine’s OSCE Chairmanship.
