Elections in the Congo
The first presidential elections in 10 years are held in the Congo today. According to experts, the current president of the country Denis Sassu-Nysso will win the election. The victory of Sassu-Dvesso became even more obvious after the former prime minister of the country Andrego, the former prime minister of the country, withdrew his candidacy. He accused the authorities of conducting "insufficiently honest and open elections" and urged citizens of the country to boycott the vote. Earlier, two more candidates refused to participate in the elections. Thus, 7 candidates apply for the main state post in today's elections. Safety during the elections is provided by army units. Denis Sasssu-Tigness was already president of the Congo from 1979 to1992, then losing to the elections to Pascal Lissube. Five years later, the armed detachments of Sasssu-Nysso, with the support of the Angolan army, overthrew Lissubu, capturing the capital of the country of Brazzavil.
