Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, the number of petitions on the website of the President's office, gaining the minimum required 25,000 votes, has increased several times.. At the same time, the number of petitions supported by President Volodymyr Zelensky has increased..

So, in 2021, citizens registered 8141 petitions, and last year - 12874. At the same time, the year before last, the president supported 19 petitions, and in 2022 - 83.

CHESNO added that the dynamics of the rapid collection of votes for petitions has been preserved. Despite the fact that the collection is given 90 days, this year, as of February 16, there were three petitions that were under consideration.

“This demonstrates the importance of the petition tool when the rights of citizens are limited during martial law.. It is important that petitions not only gain the necessary votes, but also receive a real and effective response.. Indeed, as practice shows, even if citizens receive an interim response from Zelensky, who may instruct the Cabinet of Ministers or the Verkhovna Rada to consider the issues set out in the petitions, this does not mean that their opinion was taken into account.

Therefore, the CHESNO Movement urges the office of the President to pay attention to the electronic petition tool and increase its effectiveness,” said Vita Dumanskaya, leader of the CHESNO Movement..
