U.S. says Guinea vote went "extraordinarily well"
CONAKRY |
CONAKRY (Reuters) - The United States hailed on Sunday the holding of presidential election in Guinea seen as the first free vote in the junta-ruled West African state's post-colonial history.
"Based on the assessment of local and international observers and our own election monitoring mission, the U.S. Embassy believes voting to have gone extraordinarily well," the embassy in the capital Conakry said in a statement.
Results are not expected before Wednesday and a second-round run-off between leading candidates is likely in July.
