Yet another progress report without much progress to report about. Mr Vladimir Putin’s army continues slaughtering innocent people in Ukraine. Last week Mr Vladimir Putin’s regime sentenced the opposition politician Mr Vladimir Kara-Murza to 25 years in a Russian penal colony. The situation in the Caucasus has worsened.

The report also shows the difficulties in prosecution of the committed crimes due to a lack of the necessary structures needed for an international court process. The situation seems unsolvable... 11/10/2022 | 18:17:21 Madam President, Dear Colleagues, In this Parliamentary Assembly we all agree that racism is evil. We all agree that discrimination due to ethnicity or religious beliefs should be combatted by all necessary means. Unfortunately, Mr Momodou Malcolm JALLOW's report equates even a fully‑legitimate criticism of Islam with Islamophobia. He employs well-known left-wing rhetoric by describing society in terms of the oppressed and the oppressors. In this report, Muslims are the oppressed and Western...
