All the institutions involved in organizing and conducting the elections have fulfilled the tasks provided by the electoral law, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has sent abroad the materials needed for the election.

The first round of presidential elections will take place at the end of this week. The voters in the country will vote on Sunday, between the 7:00 - 21:00 hrs.
