The situation and rights of traditional national minorities in Europe
In the draft resolution, after paragraph 4, insert the following paragraph:
"The Assembly acknowledges that States have the sovereign decision to choose between affording protection to persons belonging to national minorities, focusing on the individual dimension of the rights enjoyed by them, or on the collective dimension of these rights. International law does not in any way oblige States to recognize collective rights for persons belonging to national minorities."
