Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe Adopts Decisions on Georgia v. Russia Interstate Cases

At its September meeting, the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe examined the execution of judgments of the European Court of Human Rights in the interstate cases of Georgia v. Russia.

At Georgia’s initiative and with its active engagement, the Committee once again reaffirmed its support for Georgia’s sovereignty and territorial integrity within its internationally recognized borders and called on the Russian Federation to:

Fulfill its international obligations and withdraw its military forces from Abkhazia and the Tskhinvali region;

End the so-called borderisation process and ensure the population’s freedom and safety of movement, access to property, and the opportunity to receive education in the Georgian language in the occupied regions;

Create conditions for the safe, voluntary and dignified return of internally displaced persons to their homes, and put an end to the practice of killings, abductions, torture, unlawful detention and other serious violations.

Georgia has already achieved historic victories against Russia before the Strasbourg Court, including in the cases concerning the so-called deportees, the August 2008 war, and the “continued occupation.”

The Government of Georgia is actively working to ensure, through all available legal and diplomatic mechanisms, the full execution of the judgments delivered by the Strasbourg Court and the restoration of justice for those affected.
