Liechtenstein is already a professional, the third time around. As a neighbor, we are, of course, particularly proud that you are doing such a good job. Liechtenstein wanted to use its chairmanship of the Committee of Ministers to promote and strengthen human rights, democracy and the rule of law in Europe. You have just mentioned a number of... 24/01/2024 | 15:07:53 Dear Mr President, Dear Prime Minister, I also come from a small country, as you pointed out, in Europe, your neighbouring country.

Dear colleagues, First of all, a big thank you to you, Ms Reina de BRUIJN-WEZEMAN, for this great report.
