Declaration by the Presidency on behalf of the European Union on the presidential elections in Paraguay
Voters in Paraguay are being called upon to elect a new Parliament and their new Head of State on 20 April 2008. This, like every election, is a key time to consolidate democracy. The EU trusts that the candidates running for Parliament and for the Presidency of the Republic and the political forces that support them will help ensure that the electoral process takes place peacefully and with due regard for the rules of democracy.
