Lavrov claims EU plans secret observers for Russian Duma elections

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov alleged that the EU is preparing 'secret observers' for the September 18-20 State Duma elections, citing Western positions on elections in Romania and Ukraine. The claim is unverified and appears aimed at discrediting the electoral process ahead of the vote. This rhetoric signals heightened Moscow-Brussels tensions over election integrity.
