It is prohibited to finance political parties, candidates or campaigns of political parties or candidates with the funds which are not specified in the law.
Political parties receive state budget appropriations. Candidates are entitled to free (limited) access to broadcasts via radio and internet portal of the national broadcaster. Any other state recources are not allowed.
