Manage episode 415721182 series 3361753
The Electoral Commission of South Africa says there is nothing wrong with meeting with US Ambassador Reuben Brigety just weeks before the May 29 elections.
The IEC’s top officials met with Brigety in Pretoria this week, drawing criticism from some circles that the US was apparently influencing the outcome of the polls. The IEC says it has also met with European Union and Latin American ambassadors on the same basis to assure them they were holding credible elections.
