This motion has not been discussed in the Assembly and commits only those who have signed it.

The Parliamentary Assembly condemns without reservation the violation of the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Ukraine by the armed forces of the Russian Federation in early March 2014 and expresses its gravest concern that members of the upper House of the Russian Parliament unanimously authorised such action in advance.

The Assembly believes that there has been a serious violation of the basic principles of the Council of Europe mentioned in Article 3 of, and the preamble to, the Statute.

The Assembly must therefore reconsider at the earliest opportunity, on the basis of Rule 9.1.a of the Rules of Procedure of the Assembly, the ratified credentials of the Russian delegation on substantive grounds.
