Today, the Committee on Politics and Democracy of the Council of Europe will meet, where the report of Dora Bakojanis, rapporteur for Kosovo in the Council of Europe, is expected to be voted on, while in Kosovo they expect the report to receive the green light and pass for consideration in the Parliamentary Assembly, which would pave the way for the final decision by the Committee of Ministers of Foreign Affairs.
The inclusion of Kosovo in this body has been updated in recent weeks, since, with the request of the Government of Kosovo to the Cadastral Agency for the transfer of 24 hectares of land in the name of the Monastery of Deçan, one of the main conditions for membership has been fulfilled.
The Council of Europe – where Kosovo has applied for membership in 2022 – is the leading organization in Europe in the field of human rights.
46 countries are part of it, including 27 member countries of the European Union and all the countries of the region.
The European Court of Human Rights, based in Strasbourg, France, monitors the implementation of the European Convention on Human Rights.
Sometimes, countries have to change their laws, or make any other changes, so that an identified violation does not happen again.
