In the draft resolution, paragraph 11.4, delete the words "and Turkey."

Explanatory note

It is alleged that in Turkey, "forum shopping" by the prosecution is possible. No authority has the right to give orders or instructions to the courts in Turkey. The decisions of courts are also open to judicial review. The reference to Turkey without facts impairs the accuracy of the report.
