American politicians keep criticizing other countries’ electoral systems but prefer not to see the serious drawbacks in their own, say Russian experts commenting on the US presidential vote.
The experts closely watched the neck-and-neck battle for the White House – both its outcome and the way the vote was organized in the “world’s greatest democracy.”
The Russians noted that there were some irregularities in the voting process.
“The polls have once again demonstrated that the US electoral system…in many aspect does not meet modern democratic standards,” Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Aleksandr Lukashevich told journalists on Thursday.
