On 9 July 2021, the Chairperson of the Standing Commission of the House of Representatives of the National Assembly of the Republic of Belarus on International Affairs Andrei Savinykh took part in a videoconference on “Human rights in the West: lack of international control and response to violations of human rights” and acted as one of the speakers.
The event was organised at the initiative of the Republic of Belarus as part of the 47th session of the UN Human Rights Council, which is taking place in Geneva from 21 June to 15 July 2021.
In his address, Andrei Savinykh noted his views on the role of parliamentarians in monitoring violations of human rights and the position on the use of defective democratic standards by the West in order to seize control of state administration.
