In the draft resolution, after paragraph 3, insert the following paragraph:
"The Assembly reaffirms the principle of territorial integrity, sovereignty and inviolability of the internationally recognized borders of all member States. In this context the Assembly has systematically condemned the violation of international law and the statute of the Council of Europe by the Russian Federation in respect of Georgia and Ukraine. It has inter alia deplored the actions of the individual members of the Russian Federation Duma and the Federation Council who have unanimously voted in favour of military aggression, occupation, recognition of independence and annexation of parts of Council of Europe member States and has imposed sanctions envisaged by the Statute of the Council of Europe."
Explanatory Note :
The amendment aims at balancing the Resolution by mentioning that the actions of individual members of the Russian Federation Duma and Federation Council who violated the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Georgia and Ukraine breached international law and the Statute of the Council of Europe.
