The Parliament of Kyrgyzstan has formally submitted its request for “Partner for democracy” status with the Assembly, PACE President Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu announced today during PACE’s autumn session. The Moroccan Parliament and the Palestinian National Council already hold this status, which allows parliaments from neighbouring regions to take part in the Assembly’s work in return for commitments to uphold the values of the Council of Europe.
