CEC president Angelica Caraman stressed the importance of these consultations, as they give possibility to exchange opinions and establish the strong points, as well as the challenges in the process of creation of the polling stations outside Moldova and for the citizens with right to vote from the settlements on the left bank of Dniester.

When compiling the lists with proposals for these polling stations, decision-makers took into account the criteria established by the electoral law. At the same time, they took into account the results of the communication with the authorities of the residence states on the opening of extra-territorial polling stations.

An important aspect regarded the security of the electoral civil servants who will work in the polling stations due to be opened in states with high risk to security, as well as nearby the settlements which are not under the state’s constitutional jurisdiction.
