The politician told about the meeting with the commissioners of the countries invited to the celebration of the 450th anniversary of signing the Union of Lublin. In his Korchevsky, these countries agreed to jointly respond to the restoration of the full membership of Russia in the parliamentary Assembly.
"We are all outraged by this situation. Authorized countries who came to today's celebration, I said that I wanted to prepare a General resolution, " said korchevsky.
in 2014, the Russian Federation was deprived of a number of powers in the parliamentary Assembly over Crimea. For its part, the Russian deputies did not want to participate in the meetings of the organization. In addition, in 2017, Moscow froze contributions to the budget of the Council of Europe. In Strasbourg realized that this decision led to financial difficulties in the organization.
this week the PACE has restored the range of possibilities of the Russian delegation in full. Then the Plenipotentiaries of Ukraine, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Georgia and Poland left the meeting of the parliamentary Assembly.
Russian authorities called the decision a positive PACE. As said press Secretary of the President Dmitry Peskov, the story is not about diplomatic victory, but the triumph of common sense. However, he said that Crimea is an integral part of Russia..
