Consideration of the annulment of the previously ratified credentials of the delegation of the Russian Federation (follow-up to paragraph 16 of Resolution 2034 (2015))

Amendment No. 11 | Doc. 13800 | 22 June 2015

Committee

Committee on the Honouring of Obligations and Commitments by Member States of the Council of Europe (Monitoring Committee)

Origin

2015 - Third part-session

In the draft resolution, after paragraph 4, insert the following paragraph:

"The Assembly deplores the decision by the Russian authorities to blacklist 89 European personalities from entering the Russian Federation. The Assembly condemns the fact that this list contains the names of a current and a former member of the Parliamentary Assembly, who have been included solely because of positions they have taken in the Assembly with regard to Russia’s illegal annexation of Crimea and its military intervention in eastern Ukraine. This is completely unacceptable."
