Person:notes | In his position as Chairperson of the Central Commission of the Republic of Belarus on Elections and Holding Republican Referenda since 13 Dec 2021, Ihar Karpenka is responsible for the organisation and holding of the constitutional referendum of 27 Feb 2022, which does not meet the international standards of rule of law, democracy and human rights and does not meet the criteria set by the Venice Commission. In particular, the drafting process was not transparent and did not involve civil society or the democratic opposition in exile. He is therefore responsible for seriously undermining democracy and the rule of law in Belarus. | ch_seco_sanctions | ch-seco-54461 | ||||
