The European Social Charter of Council of Europe has safeguarded a broad range of our everyday #HumanRights since 1961: jobs, homes, healthcare, education and social protection. It’s a vital counterpart to the #ECHR, which protects civil and political rights. Know your rights!
I welcome today’s decision by the Council of Europe Committee of Ministers to approve a draft convention to establish an International Claims Commission for #Ukraine. #Accountability is the foundation of recovery and of a just peace. The Commission will turn evidence into compensation and

As Presidência da República Portuguesa De Sousa reminded us, peace is the founding mission of @CoE. The North must understand the South — dialogue builds bridges.

Thank you, President Alexander Van der Bellen, for this forward-looking exchange. Council of Europe & #Austria share a long tradition of defending values that endure beyond today’s crises. Europe’s history, its pain and its hope remind us: we stand together, with #Ukraine, for human rights, for peace.
