Will candidates be allowed to spend their own money on election campaigns?

Lidziya Yarmoshyna thinks that it may be possible to create individual financial funds for candidates and has even supported the idea.
As the head of the Central Election Commission has claimed in an interview with “Observer”, Belarus needs to replace the full budget financing of all candidates. Those who have money should spend it.

In Yarmoshyna’s opinion, election campaign will become more colourful and noticeable in this case. Now electors complain that elections are very dull.

At the same time, Yarmoshyna has noted that spending your own money on elections is not an ideal decision but we will come to it”.

Let us remind you that all candidates are allowed to spend only the money allocated by the state for their election campaigns.
