All 46 Council of Europe member states have signed the European Convention on Human Rights. Signing the #ECHR isn’t optional, it’s a mandatory step for any country wishing to join the #CoE. Because human rights, democracy, and the rule of law are at the 💙 of everything we do.

Ukraine deserves united European resolve — at the heart of my excellent discussion with FM @eli_valtonen. The @coe remains at the forefront in the pursuit of accountability. Next milestone: 16 December in The Hague, with the adoption of the Convention on the Claims Commission.
