Colleagues, the Russian Federation is out of the Council of Europe. It is out of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe. This house unanimously condemned Russia's war of aggression, breaches of international law and Russia's international commitments. But it is only... 15/03/2022 | 19:08:40 Dear President, Dear colleagues, dear Ukrainians, Russia must leave the Council of Europe immediately.
