Parliament might take attitude about the non-respect of ECHR decision

The MP of the Alliance „Moldova Noastra” Vitalia Pavlicenco proposed on Thursday, June 22, within the parliament’s sitting, to adopt the decision regarding the non-execution of the decision of the European Court for Human Rights (ECHR) in „Ilascu” case. Pavlicenco also proposed to address a legal appeal to the Russian Federation requiring its involvement in this decision regarding the release of those 2 persons arrested by Transnistrian authorities - Andrei Ivantoc and Tudor Petrov-Popa. She proposed to create a work group for elaborating this document, in order to launch, at the next meeting, a signal to Russia to get involved in this case. The MPs decided to work on elaborating this document. The Romanian senator Ilie Ilascu, ex-politic prisoner of the unrecognized regime from Tiraspol announced a week ago that he will request to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) to withdraw Russia’s chairmanship from the Ministers’ Committee of the Council of Europe, which it holds since May, as well as suspending the voting right of the Russian Federation within this organization. Ilascu declared that he will require this on the ground that the Russian Federation does not comply with the decision of the ECHR regarding the release of those 2 political prisoners arrested in Transnistria.
