Origin

2017 - Fourth part-session

In the draft resolution, paragraph 8, replace the words "continue the reforms" with the following words:

"begin real and meaningful reforms".

Explanatory note

Reports from the ground clearly indicate that "judicial reform" has been a clear formality and have not made any impact on the ground. Therefore, speaking about "continuation of the reform" would be misleading.
