1 May 2018
Dear Heads of Delegations,
Early Parliamentary and Presidential Elections will be held in Turkey on 24 June 2018,
and following an invitation, the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly we will deploy an election
observation mission to these important elections.
Please find attached a registration form for Members wishing to observe these elections.
We kindly ask you to return the completed form with a copy of the photograph page from
Members’ passports, a digital photo, and the completed Code of Conduct for OSCE PA Election
Observers to the International Secretariat at ([email protected]) as soon as possible, but no
later than
25 May 2018.
Please note that due to registration procedures, we may not be able to
accommodate those who register after the deadline.
To ensure geographical balance within the Assembly mission, each national delegation
may nominate up to 10% of the entire expected participation.
We therefore invite each
national delegation to nominate up to six participants.
Further information, including a detailed programme, will be distributed to participants
in due course. Briefings for the mission are expected to be held during the 2 days before election
day in Ankara, and Members are reminded that in accordance with the OSCE PA’s Astana
Declaration of 2008, participants are expected to attend the full briefing programme as well as
the de-briefing on the day following the election.
I wish to remind you that national parliaments are responsible for their Members’
expenses and that only English interpretation will be provided in meetings and briefings.
Yours sincerely,
Iryna Sabashuk
Head of Administration for Election Observation
