Beyond the op- erational responsibility of co-ordinating the activities of the OSCE, the Chairmanship is expected to provide political guidance for the work of the OSCE, in consultation with all participating States. This role as political driving force is a demanding task which requires a continuous negotiation process with a view to attaining the consensus of the 55 participating States of the Organization. Our guiding principle as Chairmanship is the objective of ensuring that the OSCE maintains its important role in the international arena, both in its tra- ditional areas of preventive diplomacy and in new tasks resulting from the changing international security context. The fight against terrorism is a central priority of our tenure. We are con- vinced that the OSCE is in a position to bring a valuable contribution to the international strategy led by the United Nations. It is in this context that we organized in Lisbon the first Conference among the Secretaries General and High Representatives of the main international and regional organizations involved in the fight against terrorism on 12 June 2002. This Conference al- lowed the identification of concrete ways of enhancing collaboration and op- timize synergies. Our efforts are simultaneously centred on the elaboration of an OSCE Char- ter on Preventing and Combating Terrorism, which we expect to see adopted at December’s Ministerial Council. It will be a political document based on the OSCE’s norms, commitments and values, thus providing a conceptual framework for the operational documents adopted by the OSCE in December 2001 in Bucharest and Bishkek. The Charter will also provide for the adop- tion of new measures, particularly with regard to combating the financing of terrorism. The OSCE has proved itself, over the years, to be a flexible organization which has been able to adapt smoothly and efficiently to the evolving inter- national environment. It continues to do so today and is preparing a strategy to address the threats to security and stability in the 21st century. We are all aware of the new difficulties and perils facing our individual and collective security and which no organization is capable of tackling on its own. The reinforcement of the co-operation and co-ordination between the OSCE, the European Union, NATO and the Council of Europe is essential to avoid duplication and increase synergy. This is the spirit of the so-called Plat- form for Co-operative Security which, I am convinced, should be the guiding principle for shaping the future European security architecture. 11 When speaking about the evolution of the European security architecture, two determining factors appear at the forefront: the European Union and NATO. Their process of enlargement will influence decisively the shaping of the fu- ture regional organizations network in the Euro-Atlantic area. This does not mean, however, that the OSCE will not retain a significant role to play in the foreseeable future, particularly because the evolution of the European Union and NATO is not an over-night or a holistic process; we ought to preserve the arrangements which have contributed so far to consoli- dating ties of co-operation, not only among Europeans, but also with their neighbouring partners. The OSCE is and should remain an effective forum, a “common house” for dialogue and co-operation in a Europe without dividing lines. One of the key features and an “added-value” of the OSCE is indeed its broad membership, which makes it a unique regional forum: simultaneously Euro-Atlantic, pan- European and Eurasian. The relevance of the OSCE’s partnership with other regions, namely in Asia and in the Mediterranean area, is clear proof of the vitality of its unique model of security. Important attributes of the OSCE are its comprehensive approach to security, its proven ability to strengthen democratic institutions in societies undergoing transition and its capacity to respond rapidly to crises. The OSCE also draws its strength on its institutions and on its unique presence in the field through its 18 Missions, present in Eastern and South-eastern Europe, in the Caucasus and in Central Asia. An organization is only as successful as it is useful for its citizens. Security is not an objective which stands by itself, it should also entail the trust and con- fidence of our communities. The involvement of citizens is essential for the success of any organization: This is our objective and this is our mandate as OSCE Chairmanship! 12 Kurt P. Tudyka Foreword Two topics have determined OSCE events since 2001. The most important of these were the attacks on New York and Washington, which also placed de- mands on OSCE bodies and repressed or subordinated other problems. Indeed, terrorism had already been addressed in the 1975 Helsinki Final Act and there- after was also always cited as a threat to security in CSCE follow-up confer- ences. However, since the autumn of 2001, it has become the dominating topic of discussion.1 The Permanent Council, the Warsaw Human Dimension Implementation Meeting, the Bucharest Ministerial Council, the Prague Economic Forum and the Annual Session of the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly in Berlin have dealt resolutely with combating terrorism.

  • Statelessness and Nationality
    Department of Law Spring Term 2015 Master’s Thesis in International Law 30 ECTS Statelessness and Nationality The Case of Non-Citizens in Latvia Author: Maria Hellborg Supervisor: Professor Inger Österdahl Summary Following its restoration as an independent state in the 1990s, the new Republic of Latvia inherited a significant population of former citizens of the Soviet Union who resided legally in the country, but were not given Latvian citizenship. The situation of these "non-citizens" of Latvia remains an unresolved issue, which has bearing on international law by its close connection to the concepts of nationality and statelessness. The issue also holds importance because of its implications for Latvia as a country, and for its consequences in relation to regional stability. From a perspective of contemporary international law this thesis will examine whether the non-citizens of Latvia are to be considered as constituting stateless individuals. The thesis will also address the question of whether the Latvian non-citizens are, through their legal status, limited in their access to human rights. Finally the thesis will discuss how the issue of non- citizens affects regional stability through the Latvia-Russia relationship.

It also assesses the potential impact that this and other cases before the ecj and the European Court of Human Rights may exert on national minorities. The recognition of names is not regulated in European Union law; thus, the eu member states may freely determine the usage of names in official documents, as the state language represents a constitutional value and part of the national identity of many eu member states. Therefore, only regulation of names that causes excessive interference with the exercise of freedom of movement or respect for private and family life is unlawful under eu law. This issue will also be discussed in light of Article 4(2) of the Treaty on the European Union, by which the ecj assesses these types of interference with the eu’s duty to respect the national identities of its member states.
