Russia's Public Chamber Updates Observer Code of Ethics
The Public Chamber of Russia has introduced an updated Code of Ethics for observers. Key changes include strict prohibitions against inciting discord, spreading unverified information, and making public statements that could undermine trust in the electoral system. Violations may result in an observer's recall. The code also includes new sections on sanctions and obligations, and observers are now advised to refrain from public statements until after official election results are announced.3 sourcesSee all sources
