Paragraph 12
 

ODIHR and the Venice Commission welcome Ukraine’s efforts to amend its legal and institutional framework relating to national referendums, to bring it into compliance with relevant Venice Commission’s and ODIHR’s recommendations, OSCE commitments, Council of Europe and other international human rights documents and standards as well as good practices. The transparent and inclusive character of the drafting process should be praised. According to the information received by the Venice Commission and ODIHR, recommendations proposed by the stakeholders during public discussions held through April and May 2020 were largely taken into account in the final draft.
