Following an invitation by the Government of Peru and the National Board of Elections (JNE), the European Union deployed a team of 3 electoral experts to monitor the 2021 presidential, congressional and Andean Parliament elections.

The Mission made a comprehensive assessment of the different phases and components of the electoral process until their completion in accordance with existing international, regional and national standards, as well as good practices, and provided recommendations for the improvement of future elections.

The final report of the Election Expert Mission was transmitted yesterday to the Minister of Foreign Affairs and to the National Board of Elections.

Despite tension in the campaign of the presidential run-off and allegations of fraud after e-day, the transparency and adherence to the law that all electoral institutions demonstrated through all stages of the process showed that the elections were conducted with integrity, and concluded successfully in the decisive verdict of Peruvian voters.
