Eiropas Parlaments atzīmē demokrātijas 70 gadus — no pirmās asamblejas 1952. gadā līdz mūsdienu pārbaudījumiem, kas demokrātiju padarījuši spēcīgāku nekā jebkad.

Eiropas Parlamenta 70. gadadiena: Eiropas demokrātijas 70 gadi

Parliament holds debates on human rights, democracy and rule of law topics.

Human rights are fundamental values of the entire international community. More than 70 years after the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the first comprehensive international human rights document to set common standards to which all UN members should aspire, human rights have become a cornerstone of the international system and have reached almost universal recognition. However, much remains to be done in practice so that every human being can enjoy their fundamental rights.

Debates on cases of breaches of human rights, democracy and the rule of law

Relations between the European Union and Guinea go back over 40 years.

Today, the framework for these relations is defined by the June 2000 Cotonou Agreement, concerning political and economic issues, trade, development co-operation, dialogue with civil society and humanitarian aid. 
 
The EU remains committed to supporting Guinea in promoting a stable and democratic political environment that can contribute to regional peace and security. The consolidation of democracy, the rule of law, good governance and human rights is indispensable for the creation of a favourable setting for private investment and sustainable economic development in Guinea.

EP Plenary session - Debates on cases of breaches of human rights, democracy and the rule of law (Rule 144)

With war having returned to the European continent, measuring the level of threats to peace, security and democracy around the world – as the 'Normandy Index' does – is more important than ever. The annual Index was presented for the first time at the Normandy Peace Forum in June 2019, as a result of a partnership between the European Parliament and the Region of Normandy. The Index has been designed and prepared by the European Parliamentary Research Service (EPRS), in conjunction with and on the basis of data provided by the Institute for Economics and Peace. This paper sets out the findings of the 2023 exercise, which draws on data compiled in 2022, and explains how the Index can be used to compare peace – defined on the basis of a given country's performance against a range of predetermined threats – across countries and regions. It is complemented by 61 individual country case studies, derived from the Index. The paper forms part of the EPRS contribution to the 2023 Normandy World Peace Foru

Kā mēs aizsargājam Eiropas iestāžu integritāti un demokrātiju polarizētu ideju, plaši izplatītas dezinformācijas un pārrobežu konfliktu laikā? Pētnieki un NVO visā Eiropā pēta veidus, kā padarīt sabiedrību noturīgāku pret krīzēm un ārvalstu pusēm, kas cenšas iejaukties mūsu demokrātiskajos procesos.  

Divas no šādām pētniecēm ir Jūlija no Klingendāles Starptautisko attiecību institūta Nīderlandē un Katarina no GLOBSEC politikas institūta Demokrātijas un noturības centra Slovākijā. Viņas specializējas jautājumos par Rietumbalkānu valstīm un ES kandidātvalstīm, piemēram, Ukrainu. 

Eiropas Parlaments atbalsta tiesību aktus, kas palīdz veicināt šāda veida pētniecību, un atzīst neatkarīgu struktūru nozīmi. Uzzini vairāk par to, kā Parlaments cīnās pret draudiem ES demokrātijai, šeit: https://europa.eu/!rg6kY7.

Following European elections in May 2019, the Parliament held its constituent session on 2 July 2019. Parliament, Council, and the Commission identified common priorities and committed to deliver on before the 2024 European Elections. With the series of videos "European Parliament’s priorities and achievements (2019-2024)", have a look back at the different legislative and political achievements reached by the EP. Parliament defends a European Union built on the rule of law, fundamental rights, media freedom, non-discrimination, and gender equality. MEPs have also welcomed the Commission’s yearly rule of law reports, as well as the methodological improvements made by the Commission based on Parliament’s recommendations.

Brīva un neatkarīga prese ir jebkuras demokrātijas stūrakmens. Lai gan lielākajā daļā ES valstu plašsaziņas līdzekļu vide ir veselīga, neatkarīgu žurnālistiku nedrīkst uzskatīt par pašsaprotamu.

Karolis Vīšniausks ir ārštata žurnālists un redaktors bezpeļņas žurnālistikas telpā “NARA” Lietuvā. “NARA” žurnālisti nāk no bijušās komunistiskās valsts, tāpēc saprot, cik svarīgi demokrātijas aizsardzībai ir neatkarīgi plašsaziņas līdzekļi.

Lukass Hansens ir redakcijas direktors “ENTR” – Eiropas mēroga plašsaziņas līdzekļu projektā, kas publicē Eiropas ziņas astoņās valodās. Viņu mērķis ir rosināt debates par dzīvi Eiropā un veicināt iesaistīšanos kopīgu Eiropas vērtību un ideju īstenošanā.

Eiropas Parlaments strādā, lai nodrošinātu, ka žurnālisti un plašsaziņas līdzekļi visā Eiropā var turpināt brīvi strādāt.
