The biannual debate on "the state of human rights in Europe", addresses
by Irish President Mary McAleese and Slovenian Prime Minister Borut
Pahor, and debates on Belarus and Armenia are among highlights of
PACE’s summer session in Strasbourg on 22-26 June.

Parliamentarians are also due to decide on the creation of a "partner
for democracy" status within the Assembly, aimed at the parliaments
of countries neighbouring Europe, and will consider a challenge to
the credentials of the Ukrainian delegation. There has also been a
request for an urgent debate on the election process for the Secretary
General of the Council of Europe.
