Consideration could be given to introducing more effective sanctions for violations of the rules related to the content of paid political advertisement, as deregistration is a disproportionate sanction for minor campaign-related violations.

The legislation should prioritize the use of non-pecuniary remedies in defamation and insult cases, and a ceiling should be set for awarding damages that should take into account actual harm proven by the plaintiff as well as any redress already provided through non-pecuniary remedies. The plaintiff should bear the burden of proving the falsity of any statements of fact on matters of public concern. Articles 4 and 18 of the Law on Guarantees for Activity of the President should be abolished to ensure that the reputation of the president is protected without undue privileges.
