Georgetown: The Organisation of American States (OAS) says it will observe the current recount exercise until it is concluded, according to a twitter post by the Organisation.
The OAS is just one of a few international observers who are here to observe the recount activity. Representatives of the European Union and the Government of Canada are also observing the exercise.
“OAS welcomes the initiation of the national recount in #Guyana. Transparency & compliance with the law will be critical to ensure the credibility of the process & public trust in the results. OAS observers are on the ground & will observe the process through to its conclusion,” the organisation tweeted.
Secretary-General of the OAS, Luis Almagro, who retweeted the post, stated that “the national recount in #Guyana is key to provide transparency and certainty to the electoral process and the people. We welcome the beginning of the process and call on all parties to continue supporting this task in favor of democracy in the country.”
The recount exercise is slated to last 25 days.
