The identification of gaps in the legislative framework for the control of party funding in Cyprus by OSCE experts is the focus of a statement by the candidate in the upcoming presidential elections, George Kolokasidis.
The existing legislative framework allows the parties to move millions in conditions of complete opacity and insufficient control, while he adds that the fact that in presidential elections campaign funding is given to the parties and not to the candidates is equally problematic.
Finally, Mr. Kolokasidis calls on political parties to implement the recommendations of the OSCE and accept control and transparency in their spending, while he also calls on citizens to react against this unacceptable, as he calls it, situation.
