The 57-nation OSCE, best known for its election observation work and its monitoring mission in eastern Ukraine, is often involved in diplomacy around regional conflicts such as the war between Armenia and Azerbaijan over Nagorno-Karabakh.

Facebook said Thursday it removed more than 340 accounts and pages and groups tied to Russia, some of which posed as journalists and tried to drive people to other websites and social media platforms. 

However, U.S.
ambassador to the OSCE James Gilmore said on Tuesday that he expects participating states will agree to fill those posts when they attend an annual meeting of foreign ministers on Thursday and Friday.

"The Hungarians are expressing concern over their conflict at the moment with Ukraine and ... that's spilled over into this election process but we believe that that will be resolved," Gilmore said, referring to a spat over the treatment of ethnic Hungarians in Ukraine.

The social network said it pulled down three separate networks of Russian-linked accounts that targeted various countries worldwide but had a "very limited following." Some of these accounts tried to pose as news outlets, dupe freelance journalists into writing articles and attempted to drive users to other websites. Facebook removed these accounts for violating its rules against misleading others about their identity and purpose on behalf of a foreign or government entity.

These accounts posed as journalists and locals in countries they targeted. Some of the pages and groups they managed claimed to be hacktivist groups. This network posted about current events, including the Syrian civil war, and politics in several countries such as Ukraine, Russia and the US. They tried to get Facebook users to visit other websites, links which the social network said it has blocked.
