Moscow, SANA \u2013 Speaker of the Bolivian Parliament Marcelo Elio Chavez said Syria’s recent presidential elections were fair and legitimate and all world countries should respect their results.<\/p>\n
Elio Chavez represented his country’s delegation to observe Syria’s June 3 election, the first multi-candidate, at the Syrian parliament’s invitation, which was extended to a number of friendly countries.<\/p>\n
The Bolivian official highlighted, in an interview with the Cuban Prensa Latina news agency, the high turnout of Syrians to the June 3 elections despite the difficult security circumstances in some areas.<\/p>\n
He expressed his happiness over President al-Assad’s win of the elections by a sweeping majority with 10.319.723 votes and 88.7% of the correct votes over two other rivals.<\/p>\n
This massive margin, Elio Chavez said, indicates that the majority of the Syrian people supports President al-Assad and rally around his leadership, stressing the peoples’ sovereign right to determining their countries’ political future.<\/p>\n
By confirming that the electoral process in Syria was fair, the Bolivian Parliament Speaker is echoing the assessment of other parliamentary delegation members who toured balloting stations in several provinces.<\/p>\n
