In the draft resolution, after paragraph 7, insert the following paragraph:
"The Assembly recalls Resolution 2091(2016), on Foreign Fighters in Syria and Iraq, and the testimony of Nadia Murad, the 2016 recipient of the Vaclav Havel Human Rights Prize. The Assembly reiterates its urgent call on member States to fulfil their positive obligations under international law to prevent the ongoing genocide in Syria and Iraq, and to ensure the prosecution of those responsible for committing acts of genocide and other serious war crimes against Yazidis, Christians and other religious minorities in the region, especially where the perpetrators are citizens of member States and/or arrive on European soil. The Assembly deeply laments the fact that not one prosecution has been brought against these perpetrators of genocide and crimes against humanity."
