Such resolutions do not only stand as a mark of the international community’ s preoccupation with a particular country’ s human rights record; they provide the basis for the work of country and thematic rapporteurs, charged with the investigation of human rights concerns. It is a mark of the lightness with which certain members of the Commission on Human Rights carry their responsibility to the institution that 35 of the 53 state members have failed to extend a standing invitation to those rapporteurs and other visiting mechanisms.
Per tali motivi la Commissione accoglie con favore il presente dibattito, che riteniamo essere un importante contributo al rafforzamento della posizione dell’ UE nella prossima sessione.
