MOSCOW (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 19th September, 2018) The Kremlin values and supports the position of the Central Election Commission (CEC) on holding new elections of the governor of the Primorsky territory, Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Wednesday.

"We are still closely following the developments around the elections in Primorye," Peskov told reporters.

He said President Vladimir Putin had repeatedly spoken about the priority of fair elections.

"The fact that we are seeing the situation develop now, judging by the CEC's statements, the statements coming from Vladivostok, all this certainly goes hand in hand with what President Putin has repeatedly spoken about, and which he, in fact, has always insisted on, therefore, such a position of the CEC is certainly appreciated and supported by the Kremlin," Peskov said.
