EU and Moldova to launch Human Rights Dialogue
16-02-2010EU Ministers have agreed to launch a Human Rights Dialogue with Moldova to be held at least once a year as part of the broader political dialogue between the European Union and the Republic of Moldova.
Ministers meeting in the Education, Youth and Culture Council adopted Conclusions setting the framework for the Dialogue. “The Council notes,” they underlined, “that the objectives of the Human Rights dialogue with the Republic of Moldova are on the one hand to raise human rights issues, including individual cases, in the Republic of Moldova and in the European Union in a more in-depth manner with the view toward achieving concrete results and, on the other hand, to enhance dialogue on human rights topics in multilateral fora.”
Meetings under the dialogue will be held at least once a year, with meetings held, in principle, alternately in the Republic of Moldova and in the European Union. “The dialogue will integrate a civil society component and, on an ad hoc basis, include exchanges with relevant international and regional organisations such as the United Nations, the OSCE and the Council of Europe,” the Council Conclusions said.
