Voters took part voluntarily, and the entire process followed both national laws and international standards. The OTS mission noted that polling stations operated smoothly, with no disruption from administrative or law enforcement officials.
Accessibility was also ensured, allowing voters with disabilities to cast their ballots without obstacles. Observers, both local and international, were granted unrestricted access to monitor proceedings. The mission's final assessment highlighted the referendum's compliance with legal requirements. No significant irregularities were recorded, reinforcing the transparency of the vote.
The OTS mission's findings confirm that the referendum proceeded fairly and openly. Voters, including those with disabilities, exercised their rights without restriction. The process met all necessary legal and procedural standards.
