Paragraph 12
 

In their last Joint Opinion, the Venice Commission and OSCE/ODIHR, as well as in other previous opinions, stressed the importance of taking into account sizable national minorities living on the territory of the Republic of Moldova when deciding on an electoral system. It was recommended that “The electoral system for the Parliament should create possibilities for adequate participation in public life of national minorities and mainstream interests at regional level”.[5]
