Russia got invitation from the OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights to take part in the US presidential elections as observers.

Given constant pressure on Russia, this news acquires a political significance. The invitation evidences respect and recognition of the Russian observers' professionalism as well as political role of the Russian system in international observance.
