The CEC chairperson Lidziya Yarmoshyna has informed ERB that the CEC is not the competent authority to consider the warning:
Yarmoshyna: “No, we will not do it. The warning pronounced by the General Prosecutor's Office does not concern a violation of the Election Code, it is a violation of the law on mass actions – it is beyond our scope”.
