Following the recommendations of the last Joint Opinion on the Electoral Code of Moldova,[34] the Moldovan Parliament has undertaken considerable efforts to improve the electoral legislation. The Electoral Code as amended up to March 2007 provides a good basis for the organisation of genuinely democratic elections, despite the fact that some Venice Commission and OSCE/ODIHR recommendations have not been reflected in the revised text. Thus, the key challenge for the conduct of genuinely democratic elections remains the exercise of political will by all stakeholders, and a good faith implementation of the electoral legislation.
