(Anadolu) A top European body criticized Greece for not implementing European Court of Human Rights’ (ECHR) verdicts on Greece for closing associations of the Turkish minority in the country.
Committee of Ministers of Council of Europe’s decisions, published on Thursday, said ten years after the ECHR’s judgments, two of the present associations remain unregistered and one dissolved.
The rulings recalled that “these cases concern violations of the right to freedom of association.”
The authorities in Greece were invited to “rapidly take all necessary measures so that the applicants’ cases are examined by the domestic courts,” and keeping the committee informed of all relevant developments.
