Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 7
7. Deplores the fact that BiH remains in breach of the European Convention on Human Rights by not implementing the rulings of the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) in the Sejdić-Finci, Zornić, Pilav and Šlaku cases, which allows overt discrimination between citizens in BiH in flagrant contradiction with EU values; recalls that the Commission should pay attention to this issue when preparing its opinion; stresses that, as in the case of any aspiring member of the EU, BiH is expected to progressively align its legal system with the requirements of the EU acquis regarding non-discrimination, and expects progress to be made on these essential issues in due course after the elections; insists that implementing these rulings must not affect further implementation of the Reform Agenda;deleted
