Paragraph 18
 

In March 2014, the Venice Commission and the OSCE/ODIHR adopted a Joint Opinion on a further proposal to introduce the mixed electoral system, which raised a number of concerns. As underlined in this Joint Opinion, amending the electoral system is not a novelty in the Republic of Moldova. Since 2014, due to the reintroduction of the direct election of the President of the Republic, the Electoral Code was amended inter alia to (re-)introduce provisions for presidential elections.
