The next meeting of the working group for electoral legislation reforms is scheduled for March 23, while the members of the working group will be presented with the text of the amendments to the Electoral Code, which will be a working document and was prepared by the Ministry of Justice in June 2025 and which includes OSCE/ODIHR recommendations.

"This process requires political maturity, dialogue and consensus.
