“The decision of the Grand Chamber of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine on the refusal to open constitutional proceedings was adopted,” the press service of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine said.

In July, Ukrainian deputies announced their intention to appeal to the Constitutional Court with a demand to declare the law "On the special procedure for local self-government in certain regions of Donetsk and Lugansk regions" unconstitutional.

The law on the special status of Donbass was extended until December 31, 2020.
